Question

write difference between rational numbers and irrational numbers with an examples​

Answer 1

1 Numbers that can be expressed as a ratio of two number (p/q form) are termed as a rational number. Numbers that cannot be expressed as a ratio of two numbers are termed as an irrational number.

2 Rational Number includes numbers, which are finite or are recurring in nature. Irrationals consist of numbers, which are non-terminating and non-repeating in nature.

3 Rational Numbers includes perfect squares such as 4, 9, 16, 25, and so on Irrational Numbers includes surds such as √2, √3, √5, √7 and so on.

4 Both the numerator and denominator are whole numbers, in which the denominator is not equal to zero. Irrational numbers cannot be written in fractional form.

5 Example: 3/2 = 1.5, 3.6767 Example: √5, √11

Answer 2

Answer:

We can represent rational numbers in the form of ratio of two integers(positive or negative), where denominator is not equal to 0. But we cannot express irrational number in the same form.
