No.Suppose a and b are two rational numbers.
Then they can be written as follows: a = p/q, b = r/s where p, q, r and s are integers and q, s >0.
Then a*b = (p*r)/(q*s).
Using the properties of integers, p*r and q*s are integers and q*s is non-zero. So a*b can be expressed as a ratio of two integers and so the product is rational.

What product is true about the irrational and rational numbers?
The product of 2 rationals must be rational. The product of a rational and an irrational is irrational (unless the rational is 0) The product of two irrationals can be either rational or irrational.
What happens when two irrational numbers are multiplied?
You get a product which can be rational or irrational.
Is 10x 3.14 irrational?
The product of two rational numbers, as in this example, is always RATIONAL.However, if you mean 10 x pi, pi is irrational; the product of a rational and an irrational number is ALWAYS IRRATIONAL, except for the special case in which the rational number is zero.
Are there more rational numbers than irrational numbers true or false?
In between any two rational numbers there is an irrational number. In between any two irrational numbers there is a rational number.
Is the product of any two irrational numbers is an irrational?
No. The product of sqrt(2) and sqrt(2) is 2, a rational number. Consider surds of the form a+sqrt(b) where a and b are rational but sqrt(b) is irrational. The surd has a conjugate pair which is a - sqrt(b). Both these are irrational, but their product is a2 - b, which is rational.
What product is true about the irrational and rational numbers?
The product of 2 rationals must be rational. The product of a rational and an irrational is irrational (unless the rational is 0) The product of two irrationals can be either rational or irrational.
Is the product of two rational numbers irrational?
The product of two rational numbers is always a rational number.
Why is the product of two rational number irrational?
The question is nonsense because the product of two rational numbers is never irrational.
What happens when two irrational numbers are multiplied?
You get a product which can be rational or irrational.
Are rational numbers is an irrational numbers?
yes * * * * * No. Rational and irrational numbers are two DISJOINT subsets of the real numbers. That is, no rational number is irrational and no irrational is rational.
Is 10x 3.14 irrational?
The product of two rational numbers, as in this example, is always RATIONAL.However, if you mean 10 x pi, pi is irrational; the product of a rational and an irrational number is ALWAYS IRRATIONAL, except for the special case in which the rational number is zero.
What is an irrational plus two rational numbers?
Since the sum of two rational numbers is rational, the answer will be the same as for the sum of an irrational and a single rational number. It is always irrational.
Can the product of two irrational numbers be a rational number?
yes it can, look at the example √3 times the √3 is 3. these two are rational numbers.
Does there exist an irrational number such that its square root is rational?
No, and I can prove it: -- The product of two rational numbers is always a rational number. -- If the two numbers happen to be the same number, then it's the square root of their product. -- Remember ... the product of two rational numbers is always a rational number. -- So the square of a rational number is always a rational number. -- So the square root of an irrational number can't be a rational number (because its square would be rational etc.).
Are there more rational numbers than irrational numbers true or false?
In between any two rational numbers there is an irrational number. In between any two irrational numbers there is a rational number.
Are more rational numbers than irrational numbers true or false?
In between any two rational numbers there is an irrational number. In between any two Irrational Numbers there is a rational number.
Is there any number x such that x² is an irrational number and x's is a rational number?
no x² is the product of 2 rational numbers in this case the same 2 numbers x and x The product of two rational numbers is always rational.
