what is irrational number ?
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
Irrational numbers are the real numbers that cannot be represented as a simple fraction. It cannot be expressed in the form of a ratio, such as p/q, where p and q are integers, q≠0. It is a contradiction of rational numbers.
Irrational numbers are expressed usually in the form of R\Q, where the backward slash symbol denotes ‘set minus’. it can also be expressed as R – Q, which states the difference of set of real numbers and set of rational numbers.
The calculations based on these numbers are a bit complicated. For example, √5, √11, √21, etc., are irrational. If such numbers are used in arithmetic operations, then first we need to evaluate the values under root. These values could be sometimes recurring also.
An irrational number is a real number that cannot be expressed as a ratio of integers, for example, √ 2 is an irrational number. Again, the decimal expansion of an irrational number is neither terminating nor recurring.

⭐ what is irrational number ?
☕ In mathematics, the irrational numbers are all the real numbers which are not rational numbers. That is, irrational numbers cannot be expressed as the ratio of two integers.
☕ In the case of irrational numbers, the decimal expansion does not terminate, nor end with a repeating sequence. For example, the decimal representation of π starts with 3.14159, but no finite number of digits can represent π exactly, nor does it repeat.
☕ Irrational numbers are real numbers that, when expressed as a decimal, go on forever after the decimal and never repeat. This is opposed to rational numbers, like 2, 7, one-fifth and -13/9, which can be, and are, expressed as the ratio of two whole numbers.
☕ An Irrational Number is a real number that cannot be written as a simple fraction. Irrational means not Rational.
