Jolene is correct. When you multiply two rational numbers, the product is always rational. Rational numbers can be expressed as a fraction of two integers (where the denominator is not zero), and the product of two such fractions will also be a fraction of two integers, thereby remaining rational. Thus, Malanna's statement is incorrect.
Malanna says that when she multiplies two rational numbers, her product will be irrational. Jolene says that the product in this case will be rational. Who is correct? (1 point question)
