The relationship between rational numbers and whole numbers is that all whole numbers are rational numbers, but not all rational numbers are whole numbers.
Whole numbers include all positive integers (1, 2, 3, ...) and zero (0). These numbers can be expressed as fractions with a denominator of 1. For example, 5 can be written as 5/1, which is a rational number.
However, not all rational numbers are whole numbers. Rational numbers include any number that can be written as a fraction, where the numerator and denominator are both integers. This includes fractions, decimals, and whole numbers. For example, 1/2 and 3/4 are rational numbers that are not whole numbers.
To summarize, all whole numbers are rational numbers, but not all rational numbers are whole numbers.
