Answer:

A rational number is a number that can be written as a ratio. That means it can be written as a fraction, in which both the numerator (the number on top) and the denominator (the number on the bottom) are whole numbers. The number 8 is a rational number because it can be written as the fraction 8/1.

hey here is your answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Introduction of Irrational Numbers

An irrational number is a real number that cannot be expressed as a ratio of integers. example, √ 2. The real numbers which are not rational i.e. which cannot be expressed in the form of p/q, where p and q are integers and q ≠ 0 are known asirrational numbers. The decimal expansion of an irrational number is neither terminating nor recurring.

For Example  √ 2, √ 3, √ pi, etc.

The above numbers are not a rational number as any number which can be represented in the form of p/q, such that, p and q are integers and q ≠ 0 is known as a rational number.

For Example, 2, 5/11, -5.12, 0.31 are all examples of rational numbers because the decimal expansion of an irrational number either terminates or repeats.

From the study of irrational numbers, if p is a prime number, then √ p is irrational. From this, it can be said that √ 2, √ 3, √ pi, etc. are all irrational numbers.
