The complement of the set of rational numbers?

Complement of a Set: The complement of a set, denoted A', is the set of all elements in the given universal set U that are not in A. In set- builder notation, A' = {x ∈ U : x ∉ A}. The Venn diagram for the complement of set A is shown below where the shaded region represents A'.Rational number, in arithmetic, a number that can be represented as the quotient p/q of two integers such that q ≠ 0. In addition to all the fractions, the set of rational numbers includes all the integers, each of which can be written as a quotient with the integer as the numerator and 1 as the denominator.Consider Q and Qc, the sets of rational and irrational numbers, respectively: x∈Q→x∉Qc, since a number cannot be both rational and irrational. So, the sets of rational and irrational numbers are complements of each other.

What is the largest rational number?

A googleplex. It's a 1 with a hundred zeros. NO. A googol (not google) is 1 followed by 100 zeros. A googolplex is 1 followed by a googol zeros. In any case, neither is the largest rational number. There cannot be a largest rational number since one more than that is going to be bigger. But there are some numbers that have been used in serious mathematical studies and that do have names which are far larger. See, for example the wikipedia entry for large numbers (link below).
