Irrational or rational

Explanation:

The given fraction is a rational number, since it can be expressed as the ratio between two real integers. In our cases 20 and 6, hence any given number that can be divided in terms of mathematical computation is considered to be rational, whereas irrational numbers are numbers that cannot be expressed as a value between two integers. They are often expressed in radical expressions, or constants, such as pi, and the golden ratio.

Rational
