There are infinitely many Irrational Numbers between any two numbers - rational or irrational.
Suppose x and y are two irrational numbers.
Consider x2 and y2. Is there any integer between them that is not a perfect square? If so, the square root of that number is an irrational between x and y.
If not, consider x3 and y3 and look for an integer between them that is not a perfect cube. If there is then the cube root of that number will meet your requirements.
If not, try x4 and y4 and then x5 and y5 etc. In a school exercise you are extremely unlikely to have to go as far as the cubes!

How do you find three irrational numbers between 4 5?
Any number that can't be expessed as a fraction is an irrational number as for example the square root of 4.5
What is the Next to rational and irrational number?
Next to any rational number is an irrational number, but next to an irrational number can be either a rational number or an irrational number, but it is infinitely more likely to be an irrational number (as between any two rational numbers are an infinity of irrational numbers).
Is there any rational no between two irrational number?
Infinitely many.
Which of the following numbers will produce an irrational number when added to?
When added to a rational number, any irrational number will produce an irrational number.also, when added to an irrational number, any rational number will produce an irrational number.
What is four irrational numbers closest to 6 on the number line?
Irrational numbers are infinitely dense. Between any two numbers, there are infinitely many irrational numbers. So if it was claimed that some irrational, x, was the closest irrational to 6, it is possible to find an infinite number of irrationals between 6 and x. Each one of these infinite number of irrationals would be closer to 6 than x. So the search for the nearest irrational must fail.
