Question
`5/10` lies between `1/2` and 1.
Options
True
False
Solution
This statement is False.
Explanation:
First, we convert the given rational numbers with denominator as 10, we get
`1/2 = 1/2 xx 5/5 = 5/10`
`1 = 1 xx 10/10 = 10/10`
`1/2` is equal to `5/10`.
Therefore, `5/10` does not lie between `1/2` and 1.
