Fractions and integers can be equivalent, but they are different things. An integer can be written as a fraction (7 = 7/1 or 21/3) but in its simplified form it is not a fraction.
Because that is the definition of irrational numbers: They are the numbers that cannot be written as a ratio of two integers! A fraction is a ratio of two integers.
The number 9.23 is a rational number. A rational number is any number that can be expressed as a fraction of two integers, where the denominator is not zero. In this case, 9.23 can be written as 923/100, which is a fraction of two integers, making it a rational number.
It is a rational number because it can be expressed as a fraction
No. 1.75 is NOT an irrational number. Rational numbers cannot be represented as a ratio of two integers. 1.75 can be represented as a ratio of the integers 175 and 100, i.e. 175/100 Note that this can be reduced to the equivalent fraction 7/4, which is a ratio of the integers 7 and 4
A fraction is not an integer.
No. They would then be mixed numbers, not integers.
Yes.
An integer is a fraction if, in its lowest terms, the denominator is 1.
0.8333 expressed as a fraction of 2 integers is 5/6.
Fractions and integers can be equivalent, but they are different things. An integer can be written as a fraction (7 = 7/1 or 21/3) but in its simplified form it is not a fraction.
Look at it the other way - by reverting the operation. The reason it is not a whole number is because if it where, then the subtraction of two integers would be a fraction! If a + b = c (a is a non-integer fraction, b and c are integers), then c - b = a. You would have a fraction as a result of subtracting two integers. However, adding or subtracting two integers always gives you an integer.
Yes.
yes

Any number that can be expressed as a fraction is a rational number which includes integers because as for example 5 as a fraction is 5/1
A rational number is defined as a number that can be expressed as a ratio of two integers. A ratio of two integers is also known as a fraction.
