The L.C.M of 5 and 6 is 30.

45=4×65×6=243056=5×56×5=2530Since 24<25,45<56\dfrac{4}{5} = \dfrac{4 \times 6}{5 \times 6} = \dfrac{24}{30} \\[1.5em] \dfrac{5}{6} = \dfrac{5 \times 5}{6 \times 5} = \dfrac{25}{30} \\[1.5em] \text{Since } 24 \lt 25, \\[1.5em] \therefore \dfrac{4}{5} \lt \dfrac{5}{6}

To find four rational number between 45\dfrac{4}{5} and 56\dfrac{5}{6} multiply the numerator and denominator of 2430\dfrac{24}{30} and 2530\dfrac{25}{30} by 4 + 1 i.e. by 5 we get, 120150\dfrac{120}{150} and 125150\dfrac{125}{150}

Since,120<121<122<123<124<125120150<121150<122150<123150<124150<12515045<121150<6175<123150<6275<56\text{Since}, 120 \lt 121 \lt 122 \lt 123 \lt 124 \lt 125 \\[1.5em] \Rightarrow\dfrac{120}{150} \lt \dfrac{121}{150} \lt \dfrac{122}{150} \lt \dfrac{123}{150} \lt \dfrac{124}{150} \lt \dfrac{125}{150} \\[1.5em] \Rightarrow\dfrac{4}{5} \lt \dfrac{121}{150} \lt \dfrac{61}{75} \lt \dfrac{123}{150} \lt \dfrac{62}{75} \lt \dfrac{5}{6} \\[1.5em]

Four rational number between 45\dfrac{4}{5} and 56\dfrac{5}{6} are:

121150,6175,123150,6275\bold{\dfrac{121}{150}}, \bold{\dfrac{61}{75}}, \bold{\dfrac{123}{150}}, \bold{\dfrac{62}{75}}
