A rational number can be described as a quotient of two integers, where the divisor is not zero. In other words, a rational number is any number that can be expressed in the form \( \frac{a}{b} \), where \( a \) and \( b \) are integers and \( b \neq 0 \). This means that rational numbers include fractions, whole numbers, and integers, as long as the denominator is not zero.
