a rational number is any number that CAN be written in the form a/b where b is not 0, and a and b are integers. So the denominator can be any integer (except 0) it does not have to be 100.

Is -0.99 a rational number?

Is 5.46 a rational number?

In mathematics, a rational number is any number that can be expressed as the quotient or fraction p/qof two integers, with the denominator qnot equal to zero.-5.46 can be written as e.g. the fraction 546/100 - and it's therefore a rational number.


Is there such thing as a fraction with 100 as the denominator?

Any real number can be the denominator in a fraction. A fraction is a way of expressing one number (the numerator, the "top" number in a fraction) by another (the denominator, "bottom number.") So it is possible to have a denominator of 100.


Is 3.14 irrational?

No. It can be written as a fraction where the denominator is not 0. For example, 314/100. This makes it rational.


What is the fraction number for 230 (decimal number)?

230 is an integer and not a fraction. However, it can be expressed in rational form as 230/1. You can then calculate equivalent rational fractions if you multiply both, its numerator and denominator, by any non-zero integer.

How do you find the percentage of a number with a fraction?

Get the denominator to be 100.


How do you find the rational form of a negative fraction?

To write something in rational form means to write it as a fraction. If you are given a negative number in the form of a fraction, it is already in rational form. If you are given a decimal and wish to turn it into a fraction, just use 10, 100, etc as the denominator. In the case of a repeating decimal there is a method but that's another question!


How many rational numbers are between 0 and 1 and why?

A rational number is any number that can be expressed as a fraction. Pick any integer (n) as the denominator then the numerator can be any value between 1 and n-1, for example 1/100, 2/100, 3/100,..........98/100, 99/100. All these fractions lie between 0 and 1. The denominator therefore can be any number in the range 2 to ∞ (infinity). There are thus an unlimited number of rational numbers between 0 and 1.


This is the number of parts out of 100 the numerator of a fraction where the denominator is 100.?

It is the percentage.


How do you change a percent into a fraction?

One way to change a percent into a fraction is to take the percent number and but the denominator as 100. For example if the percent number was 43 then that would be your numerator and 100 would be your denominator so it should be 43/100. Percent means out of 100 so your denominator should be 100 unless you simplify your fraction.
