Question

How many fractions are there between any two numbers on a number line?

50
20
100
an infinite number

Answer 1

There are an infinite number of fractions in between numbers on a number line.

Explanation:

The reason for this is because we have an infinite number of denominators to use. Therefore, we can not number the amount we use.

Answer 2

An infinite number.

Explanation:

• We have to find number of fractions between two numbers on a number line.

• Basically fractions are rational numbers.

• So, if we found the number of rational numbers between two numbers on a number line we are done.

• We can find infinite number of rational numbers between two number on a number line.

• It depends on us as to how we want to divide or the number of fractions we want.
• If we want we can divide an interval into 50 fractions, 100 fractions and so on but there are infinite numbers we can choose from.
