Numbers that can be expressed as a ratio are called rational numbers.
rational numbers
Every whole number can be expressed as the quotient or ratio of other whole numbers, and whole numbers ARE integers.
Yes, integers are rational numbers. Rational numbers are defined as the set of numbers that can be expressed as the ratio of two integers, where the denominator is not zero. Since integers can be expressed as the ratio of itself divided by 1, they are considered rational numbers.

Integers are a subset of the set of all rational numbers. By definition, a rational number can be exactly expressed as the ratio of two integers. Only if the ratio can be simplified so that the denominator is 1 is a rational number an integer.
