Sometimes. A rational number is any number that can be written in the form p/q where p and q are integers but q not = 0. So 3 is a natural number and a rational number because it can be written as 3/1. But 1/3 is a rational number only because it will not reduce to a natural (whole) number.

Is one natural number divided by another natural number always a natural number?

No, 4/3 is 1.333333... which is not a natural number. However, any natural number divided by a natural number will always be a rational number. This is due to the definition of a rational number as being able to be expressed as p/q where p and q are integers. Thus, numbers where p and q are natural numbers represent a subset of all the rational numbers.
