Answer

Given,

Two rational numbers : 25\dfrac{2}{5} and 35\dfrac{3}{5}.

Multiplying numerator and denominator by 6 :

25=2×65×6=123035=3×65×6=1830.\Rightarrow \dfrac{2}{5} = \dfrac{2 \times 6}{5 \times 6} = \dfrac{12}{30} \\[1em] \Rightarrow \dfrac{3}{5} = \dfrac{3 \times 6}{5 \times 6} = \dfrac{18}{30}.

So, the 5 rational numbers between 1230\dfrac{12}{30} and 1830\dfrac{18}{30} are :

1330,1430,1530,1630,17301330,715,12,815,1730.\Rightarrow \dfrac{13}{30}, \dfrac{14}{30}, \dfrac{15}{30}, \dfrac{16}{30}, \dfrac{17}{30} \\[1em] \Rightarrow \dfrac{13}{30}, \dfrac{7}{15}, \dfrac{1}{2}, \dfrac{8}{15}, \dfrac{17}{30}.

Hence, 5 rational numbers between 25\dfrac{2}{5} and 35\dfrac{3}{5} are 1330,715,12,815\dfrac{13}{30}, \dfrac{7}{15}, \dfrac{1}{2}, \dfrac{8}{15} and 1730\dfrac{17}{30}.
