It is possible if you define some arbitrary sequence, to decide which number comes "after" which other number. There is no "natural" sequence, as in the case of integers; to be more precise, you can't use the ordering defined by the "less-than" operator as such a sequence: between any two different rational numbers, there are additional rational numbers.
