Answer:
See explanation below
Explanation:
A rational number is one that can be expressed as p/q where p and q are integers. An irrational number, of course, is just the opposite
Rational numbers example: 1/2, 5/6 2, 20/3, - 5/6 0, etc
Irrational numbers example: π, √2 , √3 etc
Basically the square root of a prime number is irrational
Thus √2, √7, √13 are all irrational numbers. They cannot be represented as a ratio of an integer to another integer
However, not all square roots are irrational number.
If the number is a perfect square then its square root will be a rational number
For example √36 is 6 which is a rational number (6/1)
√1 is 1 which is also a rational number
So Jennifer is incorrect in stating that the square root of any number is irrational
