Detailed Solution

Here, we are given two rational numbers as 1 6 and 1 9 , and we have to determine the rational number which is exactly halfway between them.
So, the formula that we use to find such a rational number is given as,
a+b 2 , where a and b are the two given rational numbers.
So,
1 6 + 1 9 2 = 3+2 18 2 = 5 18×2 = 5 36
So, the rational number exactly halfway between 1 6 and 1 9 is found to be 5 36 .
Hence, the correct option is (1).
