To determine if \( \frac{3\pi}{4} \) is rational or irrational, we need to consider the nature of \( \pi \).
The number \( \pi \) is known to be an irrational number, meaning it cannot be expressed as a fraction of two integers. When you multiply or divide an irrational number by a non-zero rational number, the result is also irrational.
In this case, \( \frac{3\pi}{4} \) involves multiplying the irrational number \( \pi \) by the rational number \( \frac{3}{4} \). Therefore, \( \frac{3\pi}{4} \) is also irrational.
So, to answer your question, \( \frac{3\pi}{4} \) is not a rational number.

The number \(-2.356\) is a decimal that can be expressed as a fraction. Specifically, it can be written as:
\[
-2.356 = -\frac{2356}{1000}
\]
Since both \(2356\) and \(1000\) are integers, \(-2.356\) is indeed a rational number because it can be represented as the quotient of two integers.
In summary, \(-2.356\) is a rational number.
\[
-2.356 = -\frac{2356}{1000}
\]
Since both \(2356\) and \(1000\) are integers, \(-2.356\) is indeed a rational number because it can be represented as the quotient of two integers.
In summary, \(-2.356\) is a rational number.

The fraction \( \frac{599}{250} \) is classified as a rational number.
A rational number is defined as any number that can be expressed as the quotient or fraction \( \frac{a}{b} \), where \( a \) and \( b \) are integers and \( b \neq 0 \). In this case, \( 599 \) (the numerator) and \( 250 \) (the denominator) are both integers and \( 250 \) is not zero.
Therefore, \( \frac{599}{250} \) is a rational number. If you want, you can also convert it to a decimal by performing the division:
\[
\frac{599}{250} = 2.396
\]
This further confirms that \( \frac{599}{250} \) is rational, as both the fraction and its decimal representation qualify as rational numbers.
