Pythagoras and his followers denied the existence of Irrational Numbers, believing that all quantities could be expressed as ratios of integers. This belief was challenged when they discovered that the square root of 2 could not be represented as a fraction, leading to a crisis in their mathematical philosophy. The realization of irrational numbers contradicted their foundational principles, prompting a reevaluation of their understanding of numbers.
