is it true that all rational numbers are integers?

Question

i do not know if my question is true or false i need help on this question please help

Answer 1

You can think of whole numbers as numbers greater than zero (but no decimals/fractions).  Integers are the positive AND negative whole numbers. 

 

A rational number is one that can be made by dividing 2 integers, like 1/2, 4/7, 2/3, 8/1.

 

 

That means that all integers are rational because we can always divide an integer by another integer (remember, no decimals for one integer)  

 

 

BUT all rational numbers like 1/2 (which is equal to 0.5) is NOT an integer (no fractions, no decimals for integers!)

Answer 2

No. Example:

 

1/2 is a rational number, but it most certainly is not an integer number.  

 

However, it is true that all rational numbers are ratios of ineteger numbers.
