Is every rational number is integer(true or false)

Open in App
Solution

Dear student,
False
Rational numbers are special because they can be written as a fraction. More specifically, the definition of rational numbers says that any rational number can be written as the ratio of p to q, where p and q are integers and q is not zero.
An integer is a whole number (not a fractional number) that can be positive, negative, or zero.
The number 1.43, 3.14, 0.09, 134 ​ are not integer but rational number.
This statement is false that every rational number is an integer.
Regards.
