The square root of a perfect square yields an integer, hence it is a rational number, as √16 equals 4 and √9 equals 3 . Conversely, the square root of a non-perfect square, such as √11 or √5, cannot be expressed as a fraction of two integers, rendering it irrational .

Perfect squares have roots that are integers, such as √36 = 6 and √49 = 7, making them rational . Non-perfect squares like √11 or √2 cannot be simplified to fractions or integers, as their decimal forms never terminate or repeat, preserving their irrational nature .

Rational numbers have decimal representations that either terminate or repeat, such as 0.75 and 0.333... . Irrational numbers have non-terminating, non-repeating decimals like π or quotients of irrational numbers such as √2, indicating incompleteness in fractional representation . This pattern helps differentiate rationality and irrationality.

In multiplication, the product of two rational numbers is also rational, as seen with (-3/5) * (-2/3) resulting in 6/15, which simplifies to 2/5 . For division, dividing one non-zero rational number by another also results in a rational number, such as (-9/2) divided by (-3/4), which equals 6 . Both operations maintain the set closure property of rational numbers.

Yes, the sum of two rational numbers is always rational. For example, the addition of (-2/5) and (3/5) results in 1, which is a rational number . This is because the sum of fractions results in another fraction or an integer, maintaining the properties of rational numbers.

A rational number can be expressed as a fraction or ratio of two integers, where the denominator is not zero (e.g., 3/4, 0.75, -5/6). Irrational numbers cannot be expressed in such a fraction and have non-terminating, non-repeating decimal expansions, such as √2 and π .

The multiplication of two negative numbers results in a positive number because the negative signs cancel out each other. For instance, (-2/3) multiplied by (-3/4) equals 1/2 . This product is positive and rational, maintaining closure under multiplication of rational numbers.

π is considered irrational because it cannot be precisely expressed as a fraction of two integers. Its decimal expansion is non-terminating and non-repeating. In contrast, numbers like 0.75 (which equals 3/4) and 1/3 can be written as simple fractions, thus categorizing them as rational numbers .

Yes, the simplification can yield a positive rational number. For example, (-1/4) - (-3/8) simplifies to 1/8 . When the second negative rational number is larger in magnitude than the first, subtraction effectively becomes addition, resulting in a positive value.

To determine if the result of dividing two rational numbers is rational, the numerator and the non-zero denominator must be integers. The operation results in a rational number, such as (-15/7) divided by (-5/7) yielding 3, a rational number . The division outcome remains rational as the division of non-zero integers or fractions maintains rationality.
