Find a rational number with one decimal place that is between 17−−√ and 18−−√.

To find a rational number between √17 and √18, we can take their average.

√17 ≈ 4.123
√18 ≈ 4.243

The average of these two square roots is:

(4.123 + 4.243)/2 ≈ 8.366/2 ≈ 4.183

So, a rational number with one decimal place that is between √17 and √18 is approximately 4.2.
