Question #a9ecd

Answer 1

Yes.

Explanation:

In short if we take the number `7/5`, we can convert it to a decimal - `1.4`. Next, we can decide if the number is rational (real), irrational (complex) or even intermediate.

Real:
- Finite number of decimal points
- Whole number

Complex:
- "unreal"
- Example: `sqrt -1`

Intermediate:
- Has no definite value
- Example: `0^0`

All the best!

Answer 2

`7/5` is written in fraction form and is therefore rational.

Explanation:

By definition, a rational number is one that can be written in the form of a fraction, ie:

`p/q`, where `p and q` are integers and `q !=0`

There is no restriction on the size or sign of `p and q`.

They just need to be whole numbers (not `sqrt2, pi,` and so on.)

`7/5` meets these requirements, and it is therefore rational.

It can be written as: `" "1 2/5 or 1.4`

We know EXACTLY where this number lies on the number line!
