Answer:

A rational number is a number that can be written as an integer over an integer.

The are square roots that are perfect squares.

They can be written as a fraction that terminates or repeats.

Explanation:

Integers are whole number and their opposites:

...-3, -2 -1 0 1 2 3....


\pi is not a rational number because when it is written as a decimal, it does not repeat or terminate.


√(16) is a rational number because it is equal to 4. It is a perfect square.


√(17) is not a perfect square so it is not rational.
