The square root of 97 is an irrational number. This is because the square root of 97 cannot be expressed as a fraction of two integers. In other words, the decimal representation of the square root of 97 goes on forever without repeating, making it an irrational number.

The square root of ANY positive integer is either a whole number, or an irrational number.

Only the perfect squares have whole number square roots; all the rest are irrational. 97 is not a perfect square therefore √97 is irrational.
