A rational number is any number that can be written as a fraction.

2 can be written as (2/10 or (4/2) or (10/5) and so on, so it is a rational number.◄

An example of a number than cannot is √2 or (pi), so are called irrational.

Does there exist an irrational number such that its square root is rational?

No, and I can prove it: -- The product of two rational numbers is always a rational number. -- If the two numbers happen to be the same number, then it's the square root of their product. -- Remember ... the product of two rational numbers is always a rational number. -- So the square of a rational number is always a rational number. -- So the square root of an irrational number can't be a rational number (because its square would be rational etc.).
