Q. Is the following number rational or irrational?5πChoose 1 answer:(A) Rational(B) Irrational
Nature of Pi: Evaluate the nature of the number pi. Pi (π) is a well-known mathematical constant representing the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter. It is an irrational number because it cannot be expressed as a fraction of two integers. Pi has a non-repeating, non-terminating decimal expansion.
Nature of 5: Evaluate the nature of the number 5.The number 5 is an integer, and any integer is a rational number because it can be expressed as a fraction where the denominator is 1 (15).
Division of Irrational by Rational: Determine the nature of the division of an irrational number by a rational number.Dividing an irrational number by a rational number (other than zero) results in an irrational number. Since π is irrational and 5 is rational, the quotient 5π is irrational.
