Question

Is zero a rational number? Can you write it in the form $$\displaystyle\frac{p}{q}$$, where $$p$$ and $$q$$ are integers and $$q\neq 0?$$

Write $$1$$ if True and $$0$$ if False

Answer 1

Correct option is A. 1
We know that, rational number is a number which can be written in the form of $$\dfrac {p}{q}$$, where $$q$$ is not equal to zero.

Thus, yes, zero is a rational number, as it can be written in the form of $$\dfrac{p}{q}$$.

Since, $$0$$ (zero) is an integer thus, zero can be written in the form of $$\dfrac{p}{q}$$

Example : $$\dfrac{0}{1}$$, $$\dfrac{0}{2}$$, $$\dfrac{0}{3}$$, etc. where $$0$$ (zero) is an integer..
