Answer 2

A rational number can be written as the ratio of one "integer " to another and can be represented by a repeating or terminating decimal.

Explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Now consider the definition of rational number.

Rational number: A number is said to be rational, if it is in the form of p/q. Where p and q are integer and denominator is not equal to 0 and can be represented by a repeating or terminating decimal.

For example:

22/3=7.333333

55/1=55

44/8=5.5

Thus the blank should be filled by "Integer".

A rational number can be written as the ratio of one "integer" to another and can be represented by a repeating or terminating decimal.
