Answer 1

Answer:

It is irrational, & cannot be written as a fraction.

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sqrt{2}$ will give you a very odd number when plugged into the calculator.

1.414213562

With our knowledge of rational vs. irrational numbers, we know that means $\sqrt{2}$ has to be irrational because it is not a whole number, not an integer, & cannot be condensed into a fraction.

Any time you see a number that isn't a perfect square in a square root, it might be best to guess it is irrational.

Always plug it into a calculator (if possible) to check!
