A rational number is any number that can be written as the ratio between two other numbers i.e. in the form 
Part A:
An easy choice that makes sense is 7.8, right in the middle. To prove that it's rational we need to write it as a ratio. In this case we have
Part B:
We need a number that can't be written as a ratio (because it neither terminates nor repeats). Some common ones are
, 
, 
and 
so it makes sense to try and use those to build our number. In this case 
works nicely.

Kriste respone is wrong
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that,
Kristen was asked to write each of the numbers in the expression 80,000 x 25 using exponents
Her response was (8 x 10 to the power of 3) x 5 to the power of 2
No, the response of Kristen is wrong
Let us first understand about exponents
An exponent refers to the number of times a number is multiplied by itself
Given expression is:
Here, 80000 has 4 zeros
Therefore, it can be raised as 10 power 4
<em><u>Thus the expression becomes:</u></em>
Also, 25 can be written as 5 power 2
Thus given expression is written as (8 x 10 to the power 4) x 5 power to the power 2
Thus Kristen respone is wrong, because he has raised 10 to power 3
