No number can be rational and irrational at the same time.
3.14 is the ratio of 314:100 and so is rational. HOWEVER, 3.14 is also a common approximation for pi, which is an irrational number.
All Irrational Numbers have infinite, non-recurring decimals and so are often approximated by rationals.

Why isn't 3.14 an irrational number?
A rational number is a real number which can be expressed as a division of two integers. A real number which is not rational is called irrational. Since 3.14 = 314/100 and 314 & 100 are integers it is a rational number.
Is 3.14 irrational?
No. It can be written as a fraction where the denominator is not 0. For example, 314/100. This makes it rational.
What is the radius of a circle if its area is 314?
9.9975
What is the diameter of a circle whose circumference is 314?
The diameter of a circle whose circumference is 314 is about 1 (99.95).
What is 3.14 x 4?
Don't get cared by the decimal, it's just a point. It means: divide by 10^n where n is the number of digits after the decimal. So in this case, 3.14 means 314 / 10^2 = 314 / 100 so you are actually doing this 314/100 x 4 = 314 x 1/100 x 4. Multiplication is commutative so you might as well do 4 x 314, then divide by 100. So you should get 1256 / 100. To divide by 100, recall what decimal means, it's simply 12.56 :D

Is 3.14 a rational number or an irrational number?
3.14 is the ratio of 314 to 100 so it's rational.
Is 3.14 irrational?
No. It can be written as a fraction where the denominator is not 0. For example, 314/100. This makes it rational.
Is 3.14 an irrational number?
No, 3.14 is not an irrational number.
Is 3.14 a rational number or irrational number?
3.14 is rational. It is 314 divided by 100, so it meets the definition of rationality, i.e. the division of two integers, the denominator not being zero.pi, on the other hand, which starts with 3.14, but then continues infinitely, such as 3.1415926535897932384626433832795... (continuing forever...), is irrational and transcendental.pi is irrational because it cannot be expressed as the ratio of two integers, the demoninator not being zero, and pi is transcendental because it cannot be expressed as the root of any polynomial with rational terms.
Is 3.14 over 5 rational?
3.14 is a rational number. When divided by 5, another rational number, the result is still rational. In its most reduced form, we have (3.14/1)/5 = (314/100)/5 = 314/500 = 157/250 - a rational number
Is -3.14 an irrational number?
-3.14=(-314/100), so -3.14 is a rational number (since it can be expressed as p/q, with p and q being integers). If you mean -pi (which is approximately -3.14), then it is irrational. pi is irrational (for a proof, which is fairly complicated, see: http://www.lrz-muenchen.de/~hr/numb/pi-irr.html). And an irrational number times a rational number (which -1 is since it can be expressed as -1/1) is irrational. This can be proved by assuming the product is rational. Let x be a rational number, which can be expressed as m/n with m and n integers), and let y be the irrational number. Let S=xy. Assume S is rational, and can be expressed as t/u, with t and u being integers. Then: S=xy t/u=(m/n)y [Divide both sides by m/n, which is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal, n/m) (t*n)/(u*m)=y Since t, n, u, and m are integers, tn and um are integers. (t*n)/(u*m)=y implies y is rational, which is a contradiction. Therefore, xy=S is irrational.
Why is 3.14 not a rational?
I assume you are talking about 3.14 in terms of the number pi. 3.14 is a common abbreviation of the number pi which is 3.14159265358979323846.... This number is irrational because it goes on infinitely and it cannot be written as a finite fraction. However, 3.14 is actually rational because it can be written as 314/10.I hope this was helpful .(this came from wiki.answers.com)
Why isn't 3.14 is a rational numbers?
Whoever told you that 3.14 isn't rational was pulling your chain, and you fell for it. 3.14 is the ratio of 314 to 100, and that means it's rational.
