Question

Why is 5 a rational number?

Answer 1

A rational number is any number that can be written as a ratio of two integers (hence the name!). In other words, a number is rational if we can write it as a fraction where the numerator and denominator are both integers.

5 is a rational number because it can be expressed as the quotient of two integers: 5÷ 1
