If x is rational and y is rational then xy is rational?

Yes, the product of two rational numbers is always a rational number.


Does there exist an irrational number such that its square root is rational?

No, and I can prove it: -- The product of two rational numbers is always a rational number. -- If the two numbers happen to be the same number, then it's the square root of their product. -- Remember ... the product of two rational numbers is always a rational number. -- So the square of a rational number is always a rational number. -- So the square root of an irrational number can't be a rational number (because its square would be rational etc.).


Will 0.54732814 produce a rational number when multiplied by 0.5?

The product of two rational numbers is a rational number. All decimal numbers that terminate or end with a repeating sequence of digits are rational numbers. As both 0.54732814 (as written) and 0.5 are terminating decimals, they are both rational numbers. As 0.54732814 is a rational number and 0.5 is a rational number, their product will also be a rational number.


Why the sum difference and product of 2 rational numbers rational?

A rational number is one that can be expressed as a/b The sum of two rational numbers is: a/b + c/d =ad/bd + bc/bd =(ad+bc)/bd =e/f which is rational The difference of two rational numbers is: a/b - c/d =ab/bd - bc/bd =(ab-bc)/bd =e/f which is rational The product of two rational numbers is: (a/b)(c/d) =ac/bd =e/f which is rational


Is The product of two rational numbers always a rational number?

Yes, that's true.
