Question

Is the product of x and y rational or irrational? When x = 0.75 and y = 0.82

Answer 1

Rational number is part of a whole number therefore both of them are rational

Answer 2

Answer:

rational

Step-by-step explanation:

A rational number can be expressed in the form

$\frac{a}{b}$ ← where a and b are integers

Given

0.75 × 0.82

= $\frac{75}{100}$ × $\frac{82}{100}$

= $\frac{3}{4}$ × $\frac{41}{50}$

= $\frac{3(41)}{4(50)}$

= $\frac{123}{200}$ ← rational number
