Respuesta:
Rational numbers are all numbers that can be expressed as a fraction.
Explicación paso a paso:
That is, as the quotient of two whole numbers. The word 'rational' derives from the word 'reason', which means proportion or quotient. For example: 1, 50, 4.99, 142.
In the mathematical operations that are done daily to solve everyday questions, almost all the numbers that are handled are rational, since the category includes all whole numbers and a large part of those that have decimals.
Both rational and irrational fractional numbers (their counterpart) are infinite categories. However, these behave differently: rational numbers are understandable and, as they can be represented by fractions, their value can be approximated with a simply mathematical criterion, this is not the case with irrational numbers.

Most of the operations that are carried out between rational numbers necessarily result in another rational number: this does not happen, as we have seen, in all cases, as in the operation of radication and not of empowerment.
Other typical properties of rational numbers are the equivalence and order relations (the possibility of realizing equalities and inequalities), as well as the existence of inverse and neutral numbers.
The three most important properties are:
The associative
The distributive
The commutative
These are simply demonstrable from the inherent condition of all rational numbers to be able to be expressed as quotients of whole numbers.
