a rational number is a number that can, by definition, be expressed as a ratio of two numbers. In other words, all rational numbers can be expressed as fractions. Whole numbers are all rational (or as you put, fractional). 5 can be written as the fraction 5/1, same with any other whole number. Decimals are where it gets interesting. .5 is fractional as you can write it as 5/10 or 1/2. Pi (3.1415926......) is the classic example of an irrational number. The decimal goes on forever and doesn't repeat. Therefore, there is no way to write it as a fraction. Be careful though! Just because a decimal goes onto infinity doesn't guarantee that it is irrational. .66666666666666666 repeating might look irrational, but since that decimal can be written as 1/3 then the number itself is said to be fractional!
The formal definition of an irrational number is onethat can't be converted into a fractional equivalent.
There is no difference. Rational numbers are numbers that can be written as a fraction. Irrational numbers cannot be expressed as a fraction.
Unless the integer is fractional it is not an irrational number.
22/7 * * * * * Since pi is a transcendental number, which is a kind of irrational number, there is no fractional form of pi. 22/7 is merely a fractional approximation.
22/7 (twenty two-sevenths). * * * * * Since pi is a transcendental number, which is a kind of irrational number, there is no fractional form of pi. 22/7 is merely a fractional approximation.

An irrational number, a number containing a fractional part, a prime number or 1.
Unless the integer is fractional it is not an irrational number.

Rational numbers can be represented in the form x/y but irrational numbers cannot.

It is proven that between two irrational numbers there's an irrational number. There's no method, you just know you can find the number.
The answer previously given was a routing number, not a fractional number. These are two different things. You would need to check with the bank for the fractional number as it is based off several different parameters.
The square root of 1.225 is an irrational number
The square root of 3 is an irrational number
The square root of 12.1 is an irrational number
