7.2 = 36/5 (if you use the calculator to convert a decimal into a fraction)
Or you can work such as:
7.2
= 7 + 2/10
= 7 + 1/5 (or as a mixed number 7 1/5)
= 35/5 + 1/5
= 36/5 (as a rational number)
Or, you can do it the easy way. So easy you can do it in your head.
7.2 is the same as 72/10. Divide by 2 gives 36/5.
72 is a rational number
No, they are not.
It isn't.
7 and 2/10 or 72/10
There is not "the" rational number since there are infinitely many. A rational number between the two given numbers is the mean [average] of the two: 0.5*(4/9 + 11/12) = 0.5*(16/36 + 33/36) = 0.5*49/36 = 49/72

7 and 2/10 or 72/10
The square root of 72 is an irrational number. Since 72 is not a perfect square, the decimal is endless. (just like the value of pi)
A rational number is a number that can be written as the ratio of two integers. Examples are: -- any integer, like 793 -- any fraction, like 72/91 -- any decimal that ends
