Answer:

<u>Nathaniel is correct</u> when he says that the expression 1/11 is a rational number because it is a fraction.

Explanation:

In math, a rational number is one that can be made by dividing two integers. An integer is a number with no fractional part. Most numbers we use in everyday life are rational as they can be expressed in the form of a fraction. For instance, 5 is a rational number as it can be also expressed in the form of the fraction 5/1. The number 1/11 is already expressed as a faction which makes it a rational number. The fact that when the fraction is converted into a decimal it does not terminate does not mean that the number is not rational.
