Thinking about the different types of numbers you learned in this unit, how would you help someone remember the differences between rational and irrational numbers?

Irrational numbers can NOT be written as fractions, with rational numbers in the fraction both numerator and the denominator are written as whole numbers. While a irrational can not be written in fraction form it can be written as a decimal because it will go on forever. An example of an irrational number would be π or 3.14.... An example of a rational number could be 5, or 8/2.I hope this helps!

The Difference between Rational numbers and Irrational numbers are given as follows

Rational numbers = A number of the form [tex]\dfrac{p}{q}[/tex] when [tex]q\neq 0[/tex] is called as a Rational number

Example = Any fraction of the form p/q such as 2/3 , -3/11 and 5/12

Irrational number = A number that can not be expressed in the form of [tex]\dfrac{p}{q}[/tex] or nor it can be represented as a recurring decimal form then it is called as Irrational number

These are of the form [tex]\sqrt[n]{x}[/tex] where we can not simplify positive integer x

Example = [tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex] , [tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] ,[tex]\sqrt[3]{5}[/tex]

These both types of numbers belong to the category of Real numbers as they fall on Real number line.

Rational numbers with denominators = 1 are called as Integers

Surds are the categories of Irrational numbers are

Surds are the values of square root of any positive number that can not be simplified further to a whole number

Some examples of Surds are [tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex] and [tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]
