Since we have a fraction or ratio of two integers, it proves that -5 is rational.
An irrational number is something like pi = 3.14... that cannot be written as a fraction of two integers.
Integer numbers live in heaven (like in paradise).
They enjoy all the pleasures of living in paradise. (Like American retired people after 40 years hardworking).
Rational numbers live in purgatory. (Like American retired people after 10-15 years hardworking).
Irrational numbers live in hell.
Every day and every night the devils fry them in a frying pane, extract square roots from them, and turn them inside out
by raising them in degree (-1), so they continue struggling permanently, still remaining irrational numbers forever.
Let' start raising money to beg for irrational numbers from hell.
It takes 1 (just one) cent for each irrational number.
