Numbers that can't be expressed as fractions
An irrational number is any real number that cannot be expressed as a ratio a/b, where a and b are integers, with b non-zero, and is therefore not a rational number. This means that an irrational number cannot be represented as a simple fraction. Irrational Numbers are also those real numbers that cannot be represented as terminating or repeating decimals.
