Answer

Given,

Two numbers : 3 and 4.

To find 6 rational numbers, we can express 3 and 4 with a common denominator that is greater than 6.

Multiplying numerator and denominator by 7 :

3=3×71×7=2174=4×71×7=287.\Rightarrow 3 = \dfrac{3 \times 7}{1 \times 7} = \dfrac{21}{7} \\[1em] \Rightarrow 4 = \dfrac{4 \times 7}{1 \times 7} = \dfrac{28}{7}.

So, the 6 rational numbers between 217\dfrac{21}{7} and 287\dfrac{28}{7} are :

227,237,247,257,267,277.\Rightarrow \dfrac{22}{7}, \dfrac{23}{7}, \dfrac{24}{7}, \dfrac{25}{7}, \dfrac{26}{7}, \dfrac{27}{7}.

Hence, 6 rational numbers between 3 and 4 are 227,237,247,257,267\dfrac{22}{7}, \dfrac{23}{7}, \dfrac{24}{7}, \dfrac{25}{7}, \dfrac{26}{7} and 277\dfrac{27}{7}.
