Question

name 2 decimals whose sum is between 0.5 and 0.6

Explanation:

Step1: Understand the range

We need two decimals \(x\) and \(y\) such that \(0.5 < x + y< 0.6\). Let's choose simple decimals, for example, let \(x = 0.25\) and \(y = 0.26\).

Step2: Check the sum

Calculate the sum: \(0.25+0.26 = 0.51\). Now check if \(0.5 < 0.51< 0.6\), which is true. Another example: \(x = 0.2\) and \(y = 0.31\), sum is \(0.2 + 0.31=0.51\) (same as above) or \(x = 0.22\) and \(y = 0.29\), sum is \(0.22 + 0.29 = 0.51\). Wait, actually, we can also choose decimals like \(0.25\) and \(0.26\) (sum \(0.51\)), \(0.24\) and \(0.27\) (sum \(0.51\)), or even non - equal decimals like \(0.1\) and \(0.41\) (sum \(0.51\)). But a simple pair is \(0.25\) and \(0.26\) (sum \(0.51\)) or \(0.2\) and \(0.3\) (sum \(0.5\) which is not greater than \(0.5\), so no). Wait, \(0.25+0.26 = 0.51\), \(0.23+0.28 = 0.51\), \(0.15+0.36 = 0.51\). Alternatively, \(0.2\) and \(0.31\) sum to \(0.51\), \(0.1\) and \(0.41\) sum to \(0.51\). Another valid pair: \(0.25\) and \(0.26\) (sum \(0.51\)) or \(0.24\) and \(0.27\) (sum \(0.51\)).

Answer:

Two decimals whose sum is between \(0.5\) and \(0.6\) are \(0.25\) and \(0.26\) (sum \(0.51\)) or \(0.2\) and \(0.31\) (sum \(0.51\)) or \(0.1\) and \(0.41\) (sum \(0.51\)) etc. A simple answer is \(0.25\) and \(0.26\) (sum \(0.51\))
