Hello There:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "If we add 1/10 to 5, we get 5 + 1/10 which equals 51/10 (a rational number with a decimal representation of 5.1).\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "If we add 1/100, we get 501/100 which equals 5.01.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "If we add 1/1000, we get 5001/1000 which equals 5.001.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "We can continue this forever:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "50001/10000 = 5.0001\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "500001/100000 = 5.00001\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "5000001/1000000 = 5.00001\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Since this process can go on forever, and each time we are adding a smaller and smaller amount to 5, there are an infinite number of rational numbers between 5 and 14.\r
