Any integer that can be written in fractional form, i.e. a/b form, is referred to as a rational number.
Remember to use whole numbers in the numerator and denominator.
Because the root of 2 can be expressed as 2 raised to the power of half, the integer would become 2 1/2 in this situation. It is not possible to write it as a/b after it has been solved.
A rational number is a number that can be written in the form p/q, where q does not equal 0 and the form can still make sense.
