Q 5. The points P, Q, R, S, T, U, A and B on the number line are such that, TR = RS = SU and AP = PQ = QB. Name the rational numbers represented by P, Q, R, and S.
Given TR = RS = SU and AP = PQ = QB then, we have
There are two rational numbers between A and B i.e., P and Q which are at equal distances hence,
The rational numbers represented by P and Q are:
Also, there are two rational numbers between U and T i.e., S and R which are at equal distances hence,
The rational numbers represented by S and R are:
