Q. Which of the following are rational numbers?Multi-select Choices:(A) 71(B) 0(C) 9.81(D) 49
Definition of Rational Number: A rational number is a number that can be expressed as the quotient or fractionqp of two integers, where q=0. Let's evaluate each option.
Option (A) Evaluation: Option (A) is 71. This is a fraction where both numerator and denominator are integers, and the denominator is not zero. Therefore, 71 is a rational number.
Option (B) Evaluation: Option (B) is 0. Zero can be expressed as 10, where 0 is an integer and 1 is a non-zero integer. Therefore, 0 is a rational number.
Option (C) Evaluation: Option (C) is 9.81. This is a decimal number. However, it can be expressed as a fraction 100981, where both numerator and denominator are integers, and the denominator is not zero. Therefore, 9.81 is a rational number.
Option (D) Evaluation: Option (D) is 49. This is a fraction where both numerator and denominator are integers, and the denominator is not zero. Therefore, 49 is a rational number.
