Are rational numbers whole numbers?

The set of rational numbers includes all whole numbers, so SOME rational numbers will also be whole number. But not all rational numbers are whole numbers. So, as a rule, no, rational numbers are not whole numbers.


Can a number be both whole and irrational?

No. No irrational numbers are whole, and all whole numbers are rational.


Are all rational numbers are integers?

No, not all rational numbers are integers. All integers are whole numbers, but a non-whole number can be rational if the numbers after the decimal point either 1. end or 2. repeat. So, sometimes rational numbers are integers, sometimes they're not. But all integers are rational numbers.


Is the number 56 a rational number whole number natural number or irrational number?

56 is a rational whole natural number. Or to put it another way: 56 is a Natural number, but as all natural numbers are also whole numbers 56 is also a whole number, but as all whole numbers are also rational numbers 56 is also a rational number. Natural numbers are a [proper] subset of whole numbers; Whole numbers are a [proper] subset of rational numbers. The set of rational numbers along with the set of irrational numbers make up the set of real numbers


Are all rational numbers in the set of whole numbers?

No. But all whole numbers are in the set of rational numbers. Natural numbers (ℕ) are a subset of Integers (ℤ), which are a subset of Rational numbers (ℚ), which are a subset of Real numbers (ℝ),which is a subset of the Complex numbers (ℂ).

Is -3 a Real or rational or irrational or integer or whole or counting?

-3 is a real, rational, whole integer. But then, -- All integers are real rational whole numbers. -- All whole numbers are real rational integers. -- All rational numbers are real. -- All counting numbers are real, rational, whole integers.


Why all rational numbers are not whole numbers?

All whole numbers are rational numbers because they can be expressed as a fraction of integers.


Why are all whole numbers not rational numbers?

All whole numbers are rational numbers because they can be expressed as a fraction of integers.


Which is rational ?

All whole numbers and fractions are rational numbers


Are all rational numbers whole numbers if no explain?

No, 1/2 is rational, but not a whole number.


Are rational numbers whole numbers also?

Some are, but all are not. 2/1 is rational and whole but 1/2 is rational and not whole. So the answer is a rational number is not necessarily a whole number.


Is 191 a rational number?

Yes, 191 is a whole number. All whole numbers are rational numbers.


Can a greatest common factor be a rational number?

All factors are whole numbers and all whole numbers are rational numbers (a rational number is one which can be expressed as one integer over another integer, and whole numbers can be expressed as themselves over 1), thus all factors are rational numbers and so all greatest common factors are rational numbers. The set of whole numbers is a [proper] subset of the set of rational numbers: ℤ ⊂ ℚ


Is -2.5 is rational or irrational?

All whole numbers are rational


Is all rational numbers whole numbers?

Any number that can be expressed as a fraction is a rational number which includes whole numbers
