Normal fractions are rational numbers. So you might not be able to share things without rationals.

What number can you divide a rational number to get a number that is twice the opposite of the rational number?
You would need to divide by -1/2.
What is the rational number of A over B?
As long as A and B are integers, A/B is rational.
Is decimal a rational number?
It depends. A terminating decimal is a rational number. A decimal which, after a finite number of places, becomes a repeating (or recurrent) decimal is also a rational number. A decimal that is not terminating, nor [eventually] settles into a recurring pattern is not a rational number. Note that the decimal need not become recurring immediately.
Why is the product of a rational number and an irrational number irrational?
The question cannot be answered because it is based on a false premise.The product of a (not an!) rational number and an irrational number need not be irrational. For eample, the product ofthe rational number, 0, and the irrational number, pi, is 0. The product is rational, not irrational!
Why decimal is considered as rational number?
A decimal need not be a rational. A non-terminating, non recurring decimal is an irrational number. Only a terminating decimal or a recurring decimal is rational and that is because such a number can be expressed as a ratio of two integers.
What number will produce a rational when added to 0.25?
Since 0.25 is a rational number, you need to add another rational number. Any rational number will do. Try .75. Then you will get 1.
Is 4.586234 rational or irrational number?
It is a rational number because if need be it can be expressed as a fraction

What is the rational number of A over B?

Is -3.25 rational or irrational?
It is a rational number because if need be it can be expressed as a fraction
Is -0.28764 an irrational or a rational number?
It is a rational number because if need be it can be expressed as a fraction.
When you estimate is it a rational number?
It can be but it need not be.
Is 0.77777 a irrational number?
No because if need be it can be expressed as a fraction and so therefore it is a rational number
Is 0.285714 rational or irrational?
It is a rational number because if need be it can be expressed as a fraction
What is five and two sevenths as a rational number?
5 2/7 already is a rational number - you don't need to convert anything.
Is 0.555555 both rational and irrational rational neither rational nor irrational irrational?
No number can be both rational and irrational. And, at the level that you must be for you to need to ask that question, a number must be either rational or irrational (ie not neither). 0.555555 is rational.
Is decimal a rational number?
It depends. A terminating decimal is a rational number. A decimal which, after a finite number of places, becomes a repeating (or recurrent) decimal is also a rational number. A decimal that is not terminating, nor [eventually] settles into a recurring pattern is not a rational number. Note that the decimal need not become recurring immediately.
