Numbers are either irrational (like the square root of 2 or pi) or rational (can be stated as a fraction using whole numbers). Irrational numbers are never rational.

The answer to your question begins with a question to you. How do you know what number you are interested in ? How is it specified ? If the number is written down as a decimal, it must have a finite number of digits. This would make it a rational number. If it is written down as a fraction, that also is rational. If the number is specified as a procedure, that may or may not be rational. You make the determination using your head for logical thought - something calculators can't do. So, the short answer to your question is : no, except for a few very special cases, most of which are susceptible to logical analysis anyway.

Z=Integers; Rational numbers={a/b| a,b∈Z, b ≠ 0}.
Yes. It's the ratio of (30,303) to (250,000). Any number that you can write completely using digits and a decimal point is a rational number.
If you can write down the number completely, using digits, decimals, and fractions, then it's rational.
If you can completely write a number, using digits, fractions and decimals, then the number is rational. You appear to have accomplished that.
Yes. Any number that you can completely write down using digits and a decimal point is a rational number.

Not necessarily. The value of 3 (rational) raised to the power 1/2 (rational) is not rational.
If you can completely write a number, using digits, fractions and decimals, then the number is rational. You appear to have accomplished that.
rational number integer irrational number natural number Technically, you won't be using a number; you'll be using a measurement. As for what type of measurement, I know with absolute certainty that you'll be using meters, because the context of the question establishes this.
-- Any number that you can completely write down using digits, and a decimal point or fraction bar if needed, is rational. -- A rational number is defined as one that can be written as a fraction using whole numbers. -19 can be written as the fraction -19/1 .
