yes, 25 is a rational number because it can be expressed as the quotient of twointegers: 25÷ 1.

Hi there!

The square root of 25 is rational. This is because it is equal to the product of 5 x 5. Since 5 is a rational number and 25 is equal to 5 x 5, the square root of 25 is rational.

Hope this helps!! :)
