It is rational but not an integer.
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.
Since there is no biggest integer, there can be no biggest rational number - since any integer is a rational number with the denominator = 1.
13 is the ratio of 13 to 1 ... nice and rational.
yeah... a RATIONAL number is an integer that CAN be put into a fraction an IRRATIONAL number is an integer that CAN NOT be put into a fraction
-42 is rational. All integers are rational numbers as they can be expressed as the number over 1 which, being one integer over another integer, is the form of a rational number.

It is a number that can be expressed as a fraction but is NOT an integer. For example. 3 is an integer and it is rational since we can write 3/1, but 1/3 is not an integer and it is rational since we wrote it as a fraction or a ratio. Remember that a rational number is one that can be written as A/B where A and B are integers. Now if B is 1, which is certainly an integer, A/1 is rational but since A is an integer, A/1 is an integer.

-1 is all of an integer, a whole number, and a rational number.
An integer is a whole number. For instance, 1, 2, 3... There is no decimal part. So 23 is an integer. A rational number is a number that can be written as a/b. 23 can be written as 23/1, so 23 is a rational number. Thus, 23 is BOTH an integer and a rational number.
1/2.
Negative 1 is a rational number. It is an integer (though not a counting number) and all integers are rational.
The number -1/2 is a rational number, a negative integer divided by a positive integer.
Any fraction that does not equal to a whole number is real and rational, but not an integer. 1/5 is rational because it is represented by the division of two integers, but it is not itself an integer, which are natural numbers such as 1, 2, and 3.
An integer is any number which can be either positive and negative but not a fractional number. It is also a whole number. Examples are -1,256, -589, -1, 0, 1, 569, 5,236. It is always a rational number. By definition, a rational number is the division of two integers, where the divisor is not zero. Since the divisor is 1 when the number is an integer, then all integers are rational.
Yes. k/1 is rational, but reduces to k which is an integer.
