Question

Write the difference of an irrational and a rational number.

Answer 1

Explanation:

Irrational numbers are the set of real numbers that cannot be expressed in the form of a fraction,$p/q$ where $p$and $q$ are integers. The decimal expansion of irrational number is non-terminating non-repeating whereas that of rational number is non-terminating repeating.

The difference of irrational & rational number is an irrational number.

Consider $\sqrt{3}$ which is an irrational number & $2$ which is a rational number then their difference i.e;

$\sqrt{3}-2$ is an irrational number.
