Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer: The statement "25.8125 is irrational" is false


Discussion:

25.8125 = 25 + 0.8125 =

25 + 8125/1000 =

Multiply and divide 25 by 1000 and combine terms over a common denominator:

= 25000/1000 + 8125/ 1000

= 33125/1000

Divide numerator and denominator by 125 ( = 5^3):

= 265 / 8

which is a rational number.


Thank you,

MrB
