Answer:

<h3>Rational numbers</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

A rational number is a number that can be written as a ratio of two integers. The are expressed as fractions. Given the value 8/9, this value is a fraction and is written as a ratio of two integers 8 and 9.

The value is neither a real number, nor an integer because integers and whole numbers are not expressed as fractions.

Natural numbers are also whole numbers starting from 1 and above. Hence 8/9 is not a natural number as well.

Note that irrational numbers are also classified as real numbers and they can not be written as a ratio of two integers.

Conclusively, 8/9 is only classified as a rational number
