There are two methods of finding Rational Numbers between any two given Rational Numbers.
 
1. Mean or Average Method:
2. LCM Method:
 
Exampls:
 
i. Find a rational numbers between1. 1/2 and 3/2.
ii.Find any five rational numbers between1. 1/4 and 1/6.
 
 
 
i. Here the denominators are same,
if not then first take lcm and make the denominators of both the rational numbers same

 
We will use Mean method, (1/2 + 3/2) ÷ 2= (4/2) ÷ 2 = 2 ÷ 2 = 1
 
ii.LCM method:
lcm(4, 6) = 12
 
1/4 = 3/12= 30/120         .... (Multiplied and divided by 10)
 
1/6= 2/12 = 20/120
 
So, the any five rational number between 1/4 and 1/6 are 21/120, 22/120, 23/120, 24/120 and 25/120.
 
If in the same question it ask to find 15 rational numbers, then
1/4 = 3/12 = 300/1200  .... (Multiplied and divided by 100)
1/6 = 2/12 = 200/1200

Now , you will be able to write any 15 rational numbers between them.
 
Hope so, your doubt is clear.
