Answer:
Hey mate here is your answer
Step-by-step explanation:
Rational numbers are numbers that can be expressed as a fraction or part of a whole number. (examples: -7, 2/3, 3.75) Irrational numbers are numbers that cannot be expressed as a fraction or ratio of two integers. There is no finite way to express them. ( examples: √2, π, e)
An irrational number is a real number which can be written as a decimal but not as a fraction i.e. it cannot be expressed as a ratio of integers.
It cannot be expressed as terminating or repeating decimal.
For example, √2 is an irrational number
A rational number is a real number which can be written as a fraction and as a decimal i.e. it can be
expressed as a ratio of integers.
It can be expressed as terminating or repeating decimal.
For examples: 0.10 and 5/3 are rational numbers
