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.
