Can integers be Whole numbers or rational numbers?
Yes, both.
Why are mixed numbers rational?
Because they can be expressed as a fraction
Is a rational number the same as a whole number?
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.
How can you represent how to set of whole numbers integers and rational numbers are related to each other?
Concentric circles. The set of whole numbers is a subset of the set of integers and both of them are subsets of the set of rational numbers.

Can a number be both whole and irrational?
No. No irrational numbers are whole, and all whole numbers are rational.

Can a number be a rational number and not a whole number?
Yes as for example 0.75 and 4/5 are both rational numbers
Is it possible to add 2 rational numbers and get a sum that is less than both the numbers you added?
I think so. -4 and -5 are both rational numbers. Their sum is -9, which is less than both of them individually.
What is the difference between a whole number and a rational number?
Whole numbers are the counting numbers: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, etc. 0 and the negative numbers -1, -2, -3, -4, etc. are also sometimes considered whole numbers. Rational numbers are numbers which can be expressed by a/b, where a and b are both integer (whole) numbers. In other words, rational numbers are numbers which can be written as fractions of whole numbers. All whole numbers are rational numbers because they can be expressed as a fraction where the numerator is the original number and the denominator is 1 (e.g., 5 = 5/1). Not all rational numbers are whole numbers, however. For instance, 3/7 is a rational number because it is a fraction of integers, but 3/7 is not a whole number.
Are some fractions rational numbers?
All fractions with whole numbers on top and bottom are rational numbers,and many fractions with decimals on top or bottom, or both, are also rationalnumbers.
What are example of both real and rational numbers?
All rational numbers are examples of numbers which are both rational and real.
Can a negative improper fraction be a rational number?
-- If the numerator and denominator of the fraction are both whole numbers,then the fraction is definitely a rational number.-- Even if they're not both whole numbers, it still canbe a rational number.-- Makes no difference whether the fraction is negative or positive, improper or proper.
