Answer:

rational number is a number that can be expressed as the quotient or fraction p/q of two integers, a numerator p and a non-zero denominator q.[1] Since q may be equal to 1, every integer is a rational number. The set of all rational numbers, often referred to as "the rationals", the field of rationals or the field of rational numbers is usually denoted by a boldface Q (or blackboard bold {\displaystyle \mathbb {Q} }\mathbb {Q} , Unicode /ℚ) it was thus denoted in 1895 by Giuseppe Peano after quoziente, Italian for "quotient".The decimal expansion of a rational number either terminates after a finite number of digits, or begins to repeat the same finite sequence of digits over and over.[4] Moreover, any repeating or terminating decimal represents a rational number. These statements hold true not just for base 10, but also for any other integer base (e.g. binary, hexadecimal).
