HI 

In the chapter Data Handling, lesson 1, in example 4: 

Find 2 numbers between 2/5 and 1/2 

So can we solve this sum by making these fractions into like fractions??? We can make it 4/10 and 5/100. Then again we can multiply these fractions by 10 and it will become 40/100 & 50/100. Can we do this???

Yes, you can solve it by the said method.

But keep 1 thing in mind 1/2 is equal to 5/10 not 5/100 as you mentioned.

Now, on multiplying 4/10 and 5/10 both by 10, we get

40/100 and 50/100

Now, two numbers between 40/100 and 50/100 are: 41/100, 42/100, 43/100 etc.

Hope you get it!!
