True . as the definition itself states that r/s is rational when r and s are integers and s is not equal to 0 . or if you don't believe the the definition try it practically . take any example of yourself .
let it be 3/6 , if you replace s by 0 the answer will come 3/0 = undefined

Given:
Rational number = , where x is not equal to zero (0)
State the given statement. (true/False)
Solution:
We know that,
The definition of rational number is defined as "it can be written as form (where, s ≠ 0) is called as rational number.
For example:
0 is a rational number,because, it can be written as , 5 ≠ 0
= ∞ is not a rational number.
Thus, the given statement is "true".
