So you want four rational numbers between 3/8 and 4/9
 
Take LCM(Lowest Common Multiple) to make denominators equal
 
3/8x9/9  and 4/9x8/8
 
27/72  and  32/72
 
So 27/72
 
Then 3/8
 
The four rational numbers between 3/8 and4/9 are 28/72,29/72,30/72,31/72.
 
Ascending order : 28/72,29/72,30/72,31/72.
 
Descending order : 31/72,30/72,29/72,28/72.
