No. 1/2 , 2 , and 1 are all rational numbers.
No, it cannot. The product of a rational and irrational is always irrational. And half a number is equivalent to multiplication by 0.5
It is rational because it terminates.
1.5 is rational. Rational numbers are numbers that can be written as a fraction. Irrational numbers cannot be expressed as a fraction.
It can be written as a fraction, so it is rational.
No. It can be written as a fraction, so it is rational.
As a number which can be expressed as a fraction, 1/2 is a rational number.
There are more irrational numbers in that interval than there are rational numbers in total!
The number -1/2 is a rational number, a negative integer divided by a positive integer.
No because -1/2 is a rational number expressed as a fraction
Two lots of one-fourths equals a half.
Yes. 1 and a half is equivalent to 1.5. Since the decimal terminates, the answer is rational. If a number has a non-terminating decimal, such as pi (3.14159... etc), it is irrational. The most common irrational numbers are pi, phi, and square roots of all numbers not perfect squares (1,4,9,16,25,36,49 etc).
Yes, because the decimal ends. 0.5 ends, compared to an irrational number such as pi, which as far as we know, goes on forever.
