Name four fractions whose values are between 1/5 and 1/3

The fraction exactly between them is

4

15

There are many, many fractions between

1

3

and

1

5

.

Using a larger number as the denominator allows you to find some.

Explanation:

'The' fraction implies the fraction exactly halfway between them.

The obvious answer would seem to be

1

4

. However, it is wrong.

Find equivalent fractions for

1

3

and

1

5

with the same denominator:

L

C

M

=

15

1

3

and

1

5

→

5

15

and

3

15

∴

4

15

is exactly between them. (But this is not

1

4

!)

However, if you choose a larger denominator you will easily see how many other fractions there are.

step-by-step explanation:

consider the parallelogram shown in the attached image.

in the parallelogram hijk, the length of hk is given as,

from the properties of parallelogram we know that the opposite sides of a parallelogram are parallel to each other and are equal in measure.

therefore, the length of the side ij must be equal to the length of the side hk and that is .

hence, the expression for the length of ij confirms that hijk is a parallelogram.
