It is a number that can be expressed as a fraction but is NOT an integer. For example. 3 is an integer and it is rational since we can write 3/1, but 1/3 is not an integer and it is rational since we wrote it as a fraction or a ratio. Remember that a rational number is one that can be written as A/B where A and B are integers. Now if B is 1, which is certainly an integer, A/1 is rational but since A is an integer, A/1 is an integer.

Meaning of non-integer rational numbers?
non integer rational numbers means the numbers in p/q form and this value is not a perfect integer. ex: 22/7
Is 2 and 3 fifths rational?
Yes. Any number that can be written as one integer over a non-zero integer is a rational number. 2 3/5 = (2×5+3)/5 = 13/5 which is the form of one integer over a non-zero integer, thus it is rational.
Why the quotient of an integer divided by a nonzero integer are not a rational numbers?
Any integer divided by a non-zero integer is rational.
What are some examples of non-integer rational number?
Examples are: 1/4, 3/4, 7/8. 8/4 is not because 8/4 is 2 which is an integer. A non-integer rational number is a number that can be written as an exact fraction or as a terminating decimal. A non-integer has no digits to the right of the decimal point. Since -1.6 has one or more digits to the right of the decimal point, it is not an integer. Fractions are non-integers. ∏ (Pi) is also a non-integer.
What are the similarities of fraction and rational?
All fractions with integer numerator and non-zero integer denominator are rational, and conversely.
