There is no such number. If any number laid claim to being the smallest rational number its claim could be challenged by half that number - which would also be rational and, obviously smaller. And the claim of that number could be challenged by half that number, and so on.

Which is the smallest rational number?
1
Rational numbers from smallest to largest?
There are an infinite number of rational numbers so it would be foolish to even try to list them.
What is the smallest number by which root 5 - root 3 be multiplied to make it a rational number Also find the number obtained?
2
What is the smallest rational number?
It is 1 because it can be expressed as a fraction in the form of 1/1
What is the smallest digit that's common in all subsets of the rational numbers?
There is no such number. The empty set is a subset of rational numbers and, by definition, it contains no numbers so nothing that can be common to any other subset.Alternatively, all rational numbers less than -1 and all rational numbers greater than 1 are subsets of rational numbers. There is no number common to them.
Is 0 is the smallest rational number?
It is the smallest non-negative rational number. Negative numbers are rational and are smaller.
Which is the smallest rational number?
1
What is the smallest 3 digit rational number?
How about: 0.01
What is the smallest three digit rational number?
It is 100
Why is the smallest rational number?
There can be no such thing. Given any rational number, x, the number x/2 is also rational and is smaller than x. This process can be continued for ever.
Is there a smallest positive rational number?
1/infinity? * * * * * Nice idea but unfortunately that is not a rational number, which is defined as the ration of two integers, x/y where y > 0. Since infinity is not an integer, the suggested ratio is not a rational number. The correct answer is that there is no such number. If any number laid claim to being the smallest positive rational, then half of that number would have a better claim. And then a half of THAT number would be a positive rational that was smaller still. And so on.
