Yes it is called the fundamental theorem of arithmeticand it says that every whole number greater than one, the natural numbers, can be written as a unique product of primes. Dr. Chuck Mathdoc

Every irrational number can be expressed as a quotient of integers?
The statement is false; in fact, no irrational number can be exactly expressed as a quotient of integers because this property is the definition of rational numbers.
What is the square root of 47 in a fraction?
sqrt(47) = 6.8556546 approx. It cannot be expressed exactly as a fraction because it is an irrational number.
How many place values in pi?
Pi cannot be expressed exactly as any fraction (including as a fraction of powers of 10, which is what a decimal fraction is). There are an infinite number of place values in the number 'pi'.
What is an irrational number?
Irrational numbers are numbers that cannot be expressed as fractions with whole numbers. They are generally roots (such as the square root of two) or constants (such as pi and e). They are interesting because they cannot be exactly expressed as decimal numbers because they never terminate or repeat themselves.an irrational number is a number that goes on and on for a long time like pi
Is the square root of 2 a rational number?
No because it can't be expressed as a fraction and so therefore the square root of 2 is an irrational number.
What number is greater then the number expressed by 3.4 10101010101010?
3.5
What is three fifths as a mixed number?
Three fifths (3/5) cannot be expressed as a mixed number, because 3/5 is in between 1 and -1. A mixed number has to be either greater than 1, or less than -1 to be expressed as a mixed number.
Is the golden ratio a rational number?
The golden ratio is not a rational number. It cannot be expressed exactly as the quotient of two integers. It can be expressed as the quotient: (1+SQRT5)/2 where SQRT5 menas the square root of 5 (that is not a rational number either and so no quitient involving it is a rational number)
How do you create a decimal and a mixed number that r either greater or less than a number?

What is a number that is rational number?
Any number that can be expressed exactly as a ratio of two integers, one as the numerator and the other the denominator.
Every irrational number can be expressed as a quotient of integers?
The statement is false; in fact, no irrational number can be exactly expressed as a quotient of integers because this property is the definition of rational numbers.

When expressed as a decimals rational number will be what or repeating?
When expressed as a decimal, a rational number will either be terminating (end with a finite number of digits) or repeating (have a repeating pattern of digits).
How do you define rationality?
Rationality in mathematics is when a number is being expressed exactly by a ratio of two integers.
Can any number that can be expressed as the ratio of two integers be a rational number?
Yes it can, mainly because that's exactly the definition of a "rational number".
