Fill in the Blanks

Solution

The two rational numbers lying between –2 and –5 with denominator as 1 are –3 and –4.

Explanation:

`-3, -4 : -2 = (-2)/1` and `-5 = (-5)/1`

We know, `(-2)/1 > (-3)/1 > (-4)/1 > (-5)/1`

or –2 > –3 > –4 > –5

Hence, two rational numbers between –2 and –5 are –3 and –4.
