Yes, a rational number can be a fraction that is not an integer, whole number, or natural number. A rational number is any number that can be expressed as the ratio of two integers, where the denominator is not zero. Examples of rational numbers that are not integers, whole numbers, or natural numbers include 1/2, 3/4, and -5/11.

If you are asked to represent a rational number in a Venn diagram and it is not an integer, whole number, or natural number, you can still include it in the diagram by labeling it or indicating its representation in some way.
For example, you can write the rational number as a fraction and place it within a circle labeled "Rational Numbers" in the Venn diagram. This visually shows that the number is a part of the set of rational numbers but is not an integer, whole number, or natural number.
Alternatively, you can label a separate region in the Venn diagram specifically for non-integer, non-whole, and non-natural rational numbers and place the number there. This approach helps to differentiate it from other types of numbers.
