Yes. One third is 1/3, where both one and three are integers, therefore 1/3 meets the definition of rational numbers, which can be expressed as a fraction a/b where both a and b are integers and b is not 0.

Is the number 0.112123123412345. a rational or irrational number?

It's rational. It can be written as the quotient of two numbers whose HCF is one.


Is 1.25 a rational number and why?

A rational number is one that can be written in the form of one whole number over another whole number. 1.25 = 125/100 which is one whole number over another whole number. Thus 1.25 is a rational number. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If p and q are integers with q ≠ 0, then p/q is a rational number. The decimal expansion of a rational number either terminates or ends with a repeating sequence of one or more digits (this latter occurring when there is a prime factor other than 2 and/or 5 in the denominator).


Is this number 0.424242. rational or irrational?

The number 0.424242... is rational. A rational number is one that can be expressed as a ratio of two integers, where the denominator is not zero. In this case, the repeating decimal 0.424242... can be expressed as the fraction 14/33, making it a rational number.


Is zero neither rational or irrational?

It is rational. A rational number is one that can be expressed as one integer over another (p/q) where the bottom number q is not zero. Particularly the bottom number q can be 1, that is p/1 are rational numbers. But any number divided by 1 is the number itself, that is p/1 = p where p is any integer 0 is an integer, thus 0 is a rational number.

Is one third irrational?

No. One-third is a rational number. Any number that can be represented as a fraction using integers, like 1/3, 7/982, 67/5, etc. is rational.

Is negative one third an irrational number?

No. A rational number is any number whose magnitude is the ratio of whole numbers.The magnitude of (one third) is the ratio ( 1 / 3 ).


Is .3 repeating irrational?

No, it is a rational number, as it can be expressed as a fraction, being one third.


Is 3.245245245 a rational number?

Assuming that the number ends at that third 5, yes, the number is rational - as it has a defined end-point. If the number is equal to 3.245 recurring, then no, the number will not be rational.


What is the rational number of two third?

Is a repeating number an irrational number?

Not necessarily. An irrational number is one that cannot be expressed as a simple fraction. But such numbers as one-third (rational) is also a repeating number (0.3333333r).


What happens if you divide one third?

dividing by one third is the same as multiplying by three


All rational numbers are integers?

A rational number is a number which can be expressed as the quotient of two integers, a quotient being the solution to a division sum. Therefore, 1/2, or one half, is a rational number, equal to 0.5. However, 1/3, or one third, is an irrational number, because if you had to write the number out as a decimal, the number would continue to recur. Therefore, all integers are rational numbers, but not all rational numbers are integers. EDIT: 1/3 is a rational number, whoever said it wasn't is a moron.


Addition of rational number with a rational one gives a rational number?

Yes, it does.


Is there an irrational number between one third and one half?

There are more irrational numbers in that interval than there are rational numbers in total!
