Is 3 1/4 a rational or irrational number?

Sagot :

Answer:

It is a rational number.

Step-by-step explanation:

A number is only irrational if it has a decimal that never ends and doesn't have a pattern. So a number like Pi (3.141592653589...) is irrational while a number like 1/3 (0.33333333...) is rational.

Hi :)

Below is the difference between rational & irrational numbers

______________

RATIONAL

  • A number that can be expressed in [tex]\sf{\dfrac{p}{q}}[/tex] form, where [tex]\large\boldsymbol{q\ne0}[/tex]

Evidently,

  • An irrational number is a number that cannot be expressed in [tex]\sf{\dfrac{p}{q}}[/tex] form

Let's test the given number, [tex]\boldsymbol{3\dfrac{1}{4}}[/tex]

Well isn't it already in [tex]\sf{\dfrac{p}{q}}[/tex] form? It is.

Thus

[tex]\longrightarrow\darkblue\boldsymbol{3\dfrac{1}{4}\:is\:rational}[/tex]
