A rational number is one that can be expressed as one integer (whole number) over another integer. 4.89 = 489 ÷ 100 = 489/100 In this form 489 is an integer and 100 is an integer, so 4.89 can be expressed as one integer over another integer, thus it is a rational number.
No. An irrational number is one that is not a rational number. A rational number is once that equals one integer divided by another. So an irrational number cannot be represented by one integer divided by another integer, so it cannot be an integer!
-42 is rational. All integers are rational numbers as they can be expressed as the number over 1 which, being one integer over another integer, is the form of a rational number.
