Identify the following as rational or irrational numbers. give the decimal representation of rational numbers A)root4 B)3root18 C)root 9÷27 D)root100
Answers
Answer:
A.rational because the value of under root 4 is 2
B.irrational because it is non terminating non recurring
C.irrational because division through irrational no. is irrational
D.value of under root 100 is 10 so it is rational
a) √4
√4 = 2, which can be written in the form of a/b. Therefore, it is a rational number.
Its decimal representation is 2.0.
b) 3√18
3√18 = 9√2
Since, the product of a rational and an irrational number is an irrational number.
Therefore, 3√18 is an irrational.
Or 3 × √18 is an irrational number.
c)√9/27
√9/27 = 1/√3
Since, we know, quotient of a rational and an irrational number is irrational numbers, therefore, √9/27
is an irrational number.
d) √100
√100 = 10
Since, 10 can be expressed in the form of a/b, such as 10/1,
Therefore, √100 is a rational number.
And it’s decimal representation is 10.0.
