All but √4/4 are irrational because the definition of an irrational number is a number that is never ending like pi, or a number that cannot be converted to a fraction. √1/4 is irrational because when you find the square root, it comes out with a number that is near impossible to convert to a fraction because it is a never ending decimal.

Answer:Root(2/4) Root(3/4) Root(5/4)

Explanation:

The square root of 1/4 is 1/2 which is a rational number

1x1 = 1 for the numerator, 2x2 = 4 for the numerator

The square root of 4/4 is 1

4/4 = 1 and 1x1 = 1

The roots of 3,2 and 5 aren't integers, so the rest of the options are irrational number

For a fraction to be a rational number which is the opposite of an irrational number, the numerator and denominator has to be integers
