Rational numbers are numbers that can be written as a ratio of two integers
2=2%2F1, -8=%28-8%29%2F1, 3%2F4, and -2%2F5=%28-2%29%2F5 are rational numbers.
sqrt%283%29, 7%2Bsqrt%282%29 and pi are not rational numbers. They are called irrational numbers. The irrational numbers, together with the rational numbers, make up the real numbers.
