Select the list which contains ten examples of rational numbers. Which of the three lists contains only rational numbers? Squareroot 7, 28, Squareroot 3, pi/2, 7 1/2, pi/3, -2.75, 7, - 5/7, 6.12 -5, 10.6, 654, 5/17, 0.9, 7/3, 1 3/7, -8, Squareroot 2, 0.4 6.12, -4.7, 36, 1/2, 0.333 ..., - 23/8, 19, 1 2/3, 7/5, 0.777

Solution

A rational number is a number that can be written as a ratio. That means it can be written as a fraction, in which both the numerator (the number on top) and the denominator (the number on the bottom) are whole numbers.

Option A has sqrt3 , sqrt7 which are non rational numbers

Option B has all rational numbers except sqrt 2 can also be whoch is irrational numbers

Option has 0.33.... , 0.777 which are irrational numbers

So, Option B has only one irrationla number remaining all are rational numbers

None of them contain 10 rational numbers
