Well, honey, a rational number is any number that can be expressed as a fraction where the numerator and denominator are integers and the denominator is not zero. So, if you can write 4.343434 as a fraction, then it's a rational number. Spoiler alert: you can write it as 4343434/1000000, so yes, 4.343434 is a rational number.

BlakeOh, dude, a rational number is any number that can be expressed as a fraction where the numerator and denominator are integers. So, if you can write 4.343434 as a fraction, then it's rational. And guess what? You can totally do that! Just express it as 433434/100000 and voilà, you've got yourself a rational number. Cool, right?

Is a rational number always a rational number?
As much as, in these days of uncertainty, anything can be anything. As long as the constraints of a rational number are kept to, a rational number will always remain a rational number.
Is the sum of a rational number and a rational number rational?
Yes.
Can you multiply an irrational number and a rational number to get a rational number?
Yes, but only if the rational number is 0.
Can a rational number be multiplied by an irrational number and equal a rational number?
Only if the rational number is 0.
How is a rational number that is not an integer different from a rational number that is an number?
A rational number which is an integer can be simplified to a form in which the denominator is 1. That is not possible for a rational number which is not an integer.
