yes, a rational number is any number that can be expressed as the quotient or fraction p/q of two integers, a numerator p and a non-zero denominator q. Since q may be equal to 1, every integer is a rational number. no q will not 0

We will check if ‘0’ is a rational number or an irrational number. If we recall the definition of rational numbers, they are the numbers which can be expressed in form of p/q where p & q both are integers and q ? 0. Moreover, we know 0 can be written as 0/1, we observe that both 0 & 1 are integers and...

Moreover, we know 0 can be written as 0/1, we observe that both 0 & 1 are integers and the denominator i.e. ‘1’ ? 0. So we conclude that ‘0’ is a rational number and not irrational. We conclude that all whole numbers, all Positive and Negative Numbers are rational numbers. read less

in some way possible and some not,if you chose both numerator and denominator as zero in this case not possible here it is indeterminate form.but if you chose numerator as a zero and denominator may any something value ,here total value is zero and also make a form as in p/q.so in this case it is a rational...
