Question

is zero is a rational number ?can you write in the form of p/q where pand q are integers

Answer 1

Hey there !

Solution:

Yes the statement is absolutely true. 0 is a rational number and can be written in various forms. We all know that, 0 when divided by any number gives 0 as the answer. Hence it's p / q form would be:

$\dfrac{0}{1}, \dfrac{0}{2}, \dfrac{0}{3}, ....... \dfrac{0}{n}$,

Here n = all real numbers

But we must be careful that, 0 can only acts as a numerator and not as a denominator. If anything is divided by 0, then it turns out to be indeterminate.

$\boxed{\dfrac{0}{n} \hspace{20} \checkmark} \\ \\ \\ \\ \boxed{ \dfrac{n}{0} \hspace{19} \text{ \sfffamily X}}$

Hope my answer helped !

Answer 2

heya...

Here is your answer...

Yes, 0 is a rational number.

Rational number means a number which is in the form of p/q and where q is not equal to 0.

So, we can write 0 in the form of p/q.

0/1,0/2,0/3...

So 0 is a rational number.
