Question

Responses
none
zero
negative integers
square roots of integers

Answer 1

The correct response is "none."

By definition, integers are whole numbers that can be positive, negative, or zero, while irrational numbers are numbers that cannot be expressed as a simple fraction (they have non-repeating, non-terminating decimal expansions). Since integers can always be expressed as fractions (for example, the integer 1 can be expressed as 1/1), there are no numbers that are both integers and irrational.
