There is an infinite number of irrational numbers between 11−−√ and 17−−√.
To find the number of irrational numbers between two given numbers, we need to consider the nature of irrational numbers.
Irrational numbers are real numbers that cannot be expressed as fractions or ratios of integers. They are non-repeating and non-terminating decimals.
Between any two irrational numbers, there are an infinite number of irrational numbers, as irrational numbers form a dense set on the number line.
Therefore, the correct answer is: an infinite number.
