Which of the following numbers is between 1/8 and 1/4? PLEASE EXPLAIN

(A)0.08
(B)0.11
(C)0.13
(D)0.25
(E)0.40

By dividing the numerator by the denominator, we get:

1/8 - 0.125
1/4 = 0.25

Which number do you think is between 1/8 and 1/4?

lets see. 1/8=.125

1/4 is .250

which are between?

To determine which of the given numbers is between 1/8 and 1/4, we need to compare each number to these two values.

1/8 can be written as 0.125 in decimal form. Similarly, 1/4 can be written as 0.25.

(A) 0.08 is less than both 1/8 (0.125) and 1/4 (0.25), so it is not between them.

(B) 0.11 is less than both 1/8 (0.125) and 1/4 (0.25), so it is not between them.

(C) 0.13 is greater than 1/8 (0.125) but less than 1/4 (0.25), so it is between them.

(D) 0.25 is equal to 1/4 (0.25) and thus not between 1/8 (0.125) and 1/4 (0.25).

(E) 0.40 is greater than both 1/8 (0.125) and 1/4 (0.25), so it is not between them.

So, the number that is between 1/8 and 1/4 is 0.13, which corresponds to option (C).
