Answer 1

Simple answer

Rational numbers are numbers that are any of the following:

1. A fraction or can be converted into a fraction (Example: 1/2, 5 or 5/1, -3 or -3/1...)
2. Repeating decimals (Example: 0.3333333... = 1/3)
3. Terminating decimals (Example: 0.5 = 1/2)

Irrational numbers are any numbers that are not rational numbers. Meaning...

1. Can't be converted to a fraction
2. Don't repeat with any pattern
3. Don't terminate or end

Example: √2 = 1.414213562...

π = 3.141592654...

Hope that helps...

Answer 2

A irrational number is one that cannot be written as an integer fraction. The best known examples are pi (the ratio of circumference to diameter of a circle) and e (the base of the natural logarithm)
