Note :
- The number which can be written or can be converted to p/q form, where p and q are integers and q is a non-zero number, then the number is said to be rational number
- The number which is a type of real number and which can not written or can be converted to p/q form, where p and q are integers and q is a non-zero or which cannot be represented as a simple fraction. , then it is said to be irrational number.
Example :
- The √3 is an irrational number
Explanation :
- √3 is number which can not written or can be converted to p/q form, where p and q are integers and q is a non-zero or which cannot be represented as a simple fraction. , then hence it said to be irrational number.
- √9 is a rational number
Explanation :
- √9 can be expressed in the form p/q, that is √9 = ±3 can be written in the form of a fraction 3/1. It show that √9 is a rational number.
- 5 is rational number
Explanation :
- 5 is rational number which can be written or can be converted to p/q form, where p and q are integers and q is a non-zero number and 5 is also a whole number, or integer. We know that All integers are rational numbers.

(i) 21
Let us assume
21 is rational.
So we can write this number as
21 = ba ---- (1)
Here, a and b are two co-prime numbers and b is not equal to zero.
Simplify the equation (1) multiply by
2√ both sides, we get
1= ba√2
Now, divide by b, we get
b=a√2
or
√ab = √2
Here, a and b are integers so,
√ab is a rational number,
so,
√2 should be a rational number.
But,
√2 is a irrational number, so it is contradictory.
Therefore, √2
