Yes, two-thirds is a rational number because it can be expressed as the fraction ( \frac{2}{3} ), where both the numerator (2) and the denominator (3) are integers, and the denominator is not zero. Rational numbers are defined as numbers that can be written as the quotient of two integers, and two-thirds meets this criterion.
It's rational
The square root of 2 is an irrational number, as it cannot be expressed as a fraction of two integers. However, 2 thirds (or ( \frac{2}{3} )) is a rational number because it can be expressed as a fraction where both the numerator and denominator are integers. Therefore, while 2 thirds is rational, the square root of 2 is not.
No. It's the ratio of -17 and 3 ... a perfectly rational number.
There are two ways: one is to start with a multiple of 3 so that the thirds are whole numbers. The second is to write the answer as a rational fraction rather than as a decimal.
Yes because any number that can be expressed as a fraction is a rational number
It's rational
Yes, two thirds is a rational number. This is because it a is recurring decimal and can be expressed as a fraction. All fractions are rational numbers and all recurring decimals are rational numbers.
Yes.
It would be 21 and two thirds, so it can be expressed as a fraction and is therefore rational.
2/3 is rational. Rational numbers are numbers that can be written as a fraction. Irrational numbers cannot be expressed as a fraction.

A rational number.
Yes. It can be expressed as a ratio a/b. 5 2/3 = 17/3
Yes.
A rational number is one which can be expressed as one integer over another (possibly the same) integer which is not zero. thirty thirds = 30/3 which is one integer over another integer → it is rational.
