-10 =  and -10 is an integer and 1 is an integer.
When you have a fraction then you have what is known as a ratio
of the numerator and the denominator. When the numerator and
denominator are both integers, then what you have is called a
rational number.
  
 =  and 3 is an integer and 2 is an integer.
When you have a fraction then you have what is known as a ratio
of the numerator and the denominator. When the numerator and
denominator are both integers, then what you have is called a
rational number.
    
 Here -3 is an integer and -5 is an integer. You
can change it to a more simplied form  but that is not
necessary.

 -0.1 =  = . -1 is an integer and 10 is an integer.

0 =  0 is an integer and 1 is an integer.

0.35 = . Here 35 is an integer and 100 is an integer.
