3.1: Rational and Irrational Numbers LEQ: What is the difference between rational and irrational numbers and how do you graph them on a number line?
A number line represents all real numbers. (not just integers) Ex.
Real numbers can be separated into either rationals or irrationals. REAL NUMBERS Rationals or Irrationals A rational number is any number that can be expressed as a fraction. An irrational number is any number with a nonrepeating and neverending decimal
