Rational numbers are numbers that can be expressed as a fraction (or ratio) of two integers, where the denominator is not zero. Examples of rational numbers include 1/2, -3/4, 2, and -5.
Irrational numbers, on the other hand, are numbers that cannot be expressed as a fraction of two integers and cannot be represented by terminating or repeating decimals. Their decimal representations go on forever without a pattern. Examples of irrational numbers include √2, π (pi), and e.
To determine if a number is rational or irrational, check if it can be written as a fraction. If it can, it is rational. If not, it is irrational.
