The correct option is B False
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
