Rational numbers are those numbers that can be represented as p/q (where q ≠ 0) and rational numbers are terminating or non-terminating repeating. Whereas irrational numbers cannot be written in p/q form and they are also non-terminating and non-recurring.

Rational numbers : -3.786, 8/17, 8.23, 10.86731234, 0.75, √.49

[ √.49 = 0.7, so it is a rational number]

Irrational numbers : 3π, √11,
