options:

• between 0 and 1 meter
• between 1 and 2 meters
• between 2 and 3 meters
• between 3 and 4 meters
• between 4 and 5 meters

Explanation:

Step1: Convert fraction to mixed number

Convert $\frac{7}{2}$ to a mixed number. Divide 7 by 2: $7\div2 = 3$ with a remainder of 1, so $\frac{7}{2}=3\frac{1}{2}$.

Step2: Identify whole numbers around $3\frac{1}{2}$

The whole number less than $3\frac{1}{2}$ is 3, and the whole number greater than $3\frac{1}{2}$ is 4. So $3\frac{1}{2}$ (which is $\frac{7}{2}$) lies between 3 and 4.

Answer:

Between 3 and 4 meters (the option: Between 3 and 4 meters)
