The irrational numbers are the ones that can not be expressed as a fraction of two integers.

For example, pi or the square root of 2 are irrational numbers.

In set a, we have pi, that is irrational.

In set b, we have the square root of 80, that is a multiple of the square root of 5:


\sqrt[]{80}=\sqrt[]{16\cdot5}=\sqrt[]{16}\cdot\sqrt[]{5}=4\sqrt[]{5}

As the square root of 5 is irrational, then their multiples are also irrational.

In set c, we have the square root of 100, that have a rational solution.


\sqrt[]{100}=10

In set d, we have a periodic number. The periodic numbers, although having infinite decimals, can be expressed as fractions, so they are rational.

This set has all rational numbers.

Answers: set d and set c.
