You would need to divide by -1/2.
As long as A and B are integers, A/B is rational.
It depends. A terminating decimal is a rational number. A decimal which, after a finite number of places, becomes a repeating (or recurrent) decimal is also a rational number. A decimal that is not terminating, nor [eventually] settles into a recurring pattern is not a rational number. Note that the decimal need not become recurring immediately.
The question cannot be answered because it is based on a false premise.The product of a (not an!) rational number and an irrational number need not be irrational. For eample, the product ofthe rational number, 0, and the irrational number, pi, is 0. The product is rational, not irrational!
A decimal need not be a rational. A non-terminating, non recurring decimal is an irrational number. Only a terminating decimal or a recurring decimal is rational and that is because such a number can be expressed as a ratio of two integers.
Since 0.25 is a rational number, you need to add another rational number. Any rational number will do. Try .75. Then you will get 1.
It is a rational number because if need be it can be expressed as a fraction

It is a rational number because if need be it can be expressed as a fraction

It can be but it need not be.
No because if need be it can be expressed as a fraction and so therefore it is a rational number

5 2/7 already is a rational number - you don't need to convert anything.
No number can be both rational and irrational. And, at the level that you must be for you to need to ask that question, a number must be either rational or irrational (ie not neither). 0.555555 is rational.
