Two over three can be expressed as a ratio (2/3), so it is therefore a rational number.
Yes. 2⅓ = (3×2+1)/3 = 7/3 which is of the form of one integer over another which is the form of rational numbers.
Rational.
All whole numbers are rational but only certain rational numbers are whole. If the number is both positive and if the rational number simplifies to a number over 1, it is whole. For example 6/2 simplifies to 3 and is thus whole. However, 5/2 is rational but not whole.
Rational yes, integer no.
