Answer 1

Answer: Robert is correct, irrational numbers are part of real numbers.

Explanation:

In mathematics, numbers are classified into different groups or seats. In the case of real numbers, these are a broad category that includes all numbers that can be represented on a line. Moreover, this category includes smaller categories such as rational numbers, for example, 15, 2.4 or 6/2 that can be represented as fractions, as well as, irrational numbers such as $\pi$ that cannot be fractions. In this context, Jenny is incorrect and Robert is correct because irrational numbers are also real numbers.
