Question

Write the following integers as rational numbers:

$5$

Answer 1

A rational number is defined as a number that can be expressed in the form $\frac{\mathrm{p}}{\mathrm{q}}$ where $\mathrm{p}$ (numerator) and $\mathrm{q}$ (denominator) are integers $(\mathrm{q}\ne 0)$.

So, $5$can be written as $\frac{5}{1}$, where $\mathrm{p}=5$ and $\mathrm{q}=1$

Hence, $5$ as a rational number is $\frac{5}{1}$
