No every rational number is not an integer
A rational number is of the form p/q where p and q are integers and q≠0
Now if p=2 and q=3 the rational number is 2/3 which is not an integer

Every rational number is not an integer.
Numbers that may be stated as a fraction, as well as positive, negative, and zero, are known as rational numbers. It can be expressed as p/q, where q is not zero.
A positive, negative, or zero integer is a number that can be positive or negative. Integers are numbers that aren't fractions or decimals. There are two types of numbers: whole numbers and negative numbers.
Example:
2/5 is not an integer. Since we cannot express 2/5 without a fractional or decimal point.
-4/-4 is an integer. If we simplify -5/-5 to its lowest form we get 1 which is an integer.
Thus, every integer is a rational number but every rational number need not be an integer.
