Any number that you can completely write down with digits ... and a fraction bar or decimal point if necessary ... is rational. 1/4 is the complete number so it's rational. It's as easy as that.

a rational number can be written as a fraction with whole numbers
an irrational cannot be written as a fraction
1/4 is a fraction with whole numbers
(pi is irrational because it never ends and it's fraction form can only be estimated)

1/4 is rational
