Answer:

lets begin with the definition of rational numbers

it is any number which can be written in the form of p/q where p and q are integers and q≠o and p and q are co-prime.

so we can say that 1/2 is a rational number. just think about it.

both 1 and 2 are integers and 2≠o and 1 is co-prime with 2 i.e they have no common factors.

now you see, 1/2 is not a whole number. it is a part of a whole, i.e it is a fraction.

thus all rational numbers are not whole numbers but whole numbers can be rational. now why is that.

just take the case of a whole no. 4

it can be written as 4/1  no difference right now isnt that a rational?

i hope its clear...
