Question

Whats the sum of two rational numbers

Answer 1

The sum of two rational numbers is always a rational number.

Rational Number is the number of the form
`(p)/(q)`, q≠0 and p and q are integers.

Further, when we add or subtract two rational number it is always a rational number. Example:

`(4)/(64) +(25)/(4) = (4+25* 16)/(64) \\= (4+400)/(64) = (404)/(64) =(101)/(16)`

which is also a rational number.

Thus, the sum of two rational numbers is always a rational number.
