What is a rational number between Y and Y?
There cannot be any rational"between" the same number.
What is the order from largest to smallest for whole number integers rational numbers natural number irrational numbers and real numbers?
Such numbers cannot be ordered in the manner suggested by the question because: For every whole number there are integers, rational numbers, natural numbers, irrational numbers and real numbers that are bigger. For every integer there are whole numbers, rational numbers, natural numbers, irrational numbers and real numbers that are bigger. For every rational number there are whole numbers, integers, natural numbers, irrational numbers and real numbers that are bigger. For every natural number there are whole numbers, integers, rational numbers, irrational numbers and real numbers that are bigger. For every irrational number there are whole numbers, integers, rational numbers, natural numbers and real numbers that are bigger. For every real number there are whole numbers, integers, rational numbers, natural numbers and irrational numbers that are bigger. Each of these kinds of numbers form an infinite sets but the size of the sets is not the same. Georg Cantor showed that the cardinality of whole numbers, integers, rational numbers and natural number is the same order of infinity: aleph-null. The cardinality of irrational numbers and real number is a bigger order of infinity: aleph-one.
Is a rational number the same as an integer?
no. an integer is a whole, positive number, a rational number can be positive, negative, or a fraction
Is the difference of two rational numbers always rational?
Yes. This is the same as asking for one rational number to be subtracted from another; to do this each rational number is made into an equivalent rational number so that the two rational numbers have the same denominator, and then the numerators are subtracted which gives a rational number which may possibly be simplified.
What is a infinite rational numbers?
There is no infinite rational number. There are infinitely many of them but that is not the same.
Are some rational numbers are irrational numbers?
Numbers cannot be rational and irrational at the same time.
Is every Real number an irrational number?
No, a real number could also be a rational number, an integer, a whole number, or a natural number. Irrational numbers fall into the same category of real numbers, but every real number is not an irrational number.
Is non recurring rational number the same as terminating rational number?
Yes.
What number is both rational and irrational?
None. A rational number is a number that can be written as the quotient of two integers where the divisor is not zero. An irrational number is a real number that cannot be written as the quotient of two integers where the divisor is not zero. Any given real number either can or cannot be written as the quotient of two integers. If it can, it is rational. If it cannot, it is irrational. You can't be both at the same time. The square root of -1 is not a real number and it cannot be written as the quotient of two integers, so it is neither rational nor irrational.
Is there any difference between rational numbers and fractions?
no they are one and the same thing. A rational number is defined as any real number that can be expressed as a fraction p/q for two integers p, q.
Can rational numbers be negative?
Any rational positive number is still rational when you make the same number negative.
Is 3.1214122144 an integer rational or irrational?
3.1214122144 is a rational number. Rational numbers are any number that can be defined as a fraction. Your number is the same as 3 and 1214122144/10000000000
Why can't a number be both irrational and whole at the same time?
A whole number k can be written in the form k/1 where k and 1 are both integers. It can, thus, be expressed in the form of a ratio and so is rational. Since it is rational it cannot be irrational. Simple!

Is 96 a rational number?
Yes because it can be expressed as a fraction
