A number lying in the middle between two numbers.

The video tutorial explains how to find a number that lies in the middle between two numbers. It introduces methods to calculate the midpoint by either adding half the distance to the smaller number or subtracting it from the larger number. An example is provided to find a rational number between 1/6 and 7/6, demonstrating the use of a number line and calculating the distance between the numbers. The tutorial concludes by showing how to find the midpoint using the calculated distance.

What is the first step in finding a number that lies in the middle between two numbers?

• Multiply the two numbers.

• Put the smallest number first and add half the distance.

• Subtract the smaller number from the larger number.

• Add the two numbers together.

In the example provided, which number is incorrectly identified as the midpoint between 1/6 and 7/6?

• 5/6

• 6/6

• 3/6

• 4/6

What is the distance between the numbers 1/6 and 7/6?

• 1

• 1/6

• 2/6

• 6/6

How do you calculate the midpoint using the smaller number 1/6?

• Add the distance to 1/6.

• Subtract the distance from 1/6.

• Multiply 1/6 by the distance.

• Add half the distance to 1/6.

What is the result when you subtract half the distance from the larger number 7/6?

• 3/6

• 6/6

• 4/6

• 5/6
