and
are integers and
.
We can rewrite .
Therefore option A is a rational number.
Option B is obviously a rational number because it is already in the form .
Option C cannot be written in the form because the decimal place does not repeat or recur and it does not terminate also.
Therefore is not a rational number.
As for option D, the decimal places recurs or repeats and it does not terminate. We can rewrite in the form,.
hence it is a rational number.
ANSWER TO QUESTION 2
Yes is a perfect square.
All numbers whose square roots are perfect squares are rational numbers.
If we raise we get
.
In order words if we take the square root of we get a rational number.
That is

ANSWER TO QUESTION 5.
The statement, every rational number is q square root is false.
We only need at least a counterexample to show that, the above statement is false.
Let be any real number.
Then , where
and
are integers.
This implies that
Base on this final equation, can only be an integer if
is a perfect number. Hence not every rational number is a square root because some numbers aren't perfect squares.
The correct answer is C
