What are two uses of integers?
You can use them for counting, which is in fact addition. You can also use them for subtracion. Integers are natural numbers. This means you don't use decimals or fractions.
What symbol correctly compares two fractions?
You can use the same symbols that you use to compare integers or decimals: equal, greater than, greater-than-or-equal, etc.
How is a rational number defined?
A rational number is a continuous quantity that is a quotient of two integers in which the second integer is a natural number. Rational numbers include the integers as well as non-integers such as fractions and decimals. Rational numbers are the direct result of the arithmetical operation of division.
What is a definition for ordering fractions?
to order fractions you can cross multiply two fractions at a time or you can convert all the fractions into decimals.
What is a noninteger?
Most things are non-integer. A taste or smell, for example.
Is 14.23 rational or irrational?
14.23 is a rational number because it can be expressed as a fraction of two integers. Specifically, it can be written as 1423/100, where both 1423 and 100 are integers. Rational numbers include all integers, fractions, and terminating or repeating decimals, making 14.23 fall into this category.
Fractions and decimals?
Fractions and decimals are different ways of notating the same thing: a number that falls between two whole numbers. In its simplest form, think about a distance or a value that is exactly halfway between 3 and 4 of something. As a mixed number, that would be 3 and 1/2 As a fraction, that would be 7/2 As a decimal, that would be 3.5 Some people refer to mixed fractions or decimal fractions to underscore the fact that they're all the same.
Are negative one fourth and negative two fifths negative integers?
No. They are negative fractions, not integers.
Is -700 rational?
Yes, numbers fall into two categories rational and irrational. Rational: Fractions Terminating Decimals Integers Irrational: Pi The square root of 2 The square root of 3 Infinity
How is a number that is not an Integer different from a rational number that is an integer?
A number that is not an integer can be a rational number (like 1/2 or 3.5) or an irrational number (like √2 or π). Rational numbers include both integers (like 1, -2, or 5) and non-integers, which are fractions or decimals that can be expressed as a ratio of two integers. In contrast, an integer is a whole number without any fractional or decimal component, so a rational number that is an integer is always a whole number, while a number that is not an integer may include fractions or decimals.
What is the relashionship between fractions and decimals?
The relationship between fractions and decimals can be seen as follow. Fractions can be represented as ratio of two numbers and on dividing can give a decimal value. And decimal value can be converted into a fraction too.
What does a divisible number mean?
There's at least two integers whose product equals that number. Basically a number that can be divided. If you can't divide by any integer and you'll only get fractions/decimals, it's not divisible.
