Answer:


\textsf{Rational}

Step-by-step explanation:


\textsf{A rational number is the real number which can be expressed in p/q form where}\\\textsf{p and q are both integers and q}\sf{\\e 0.}\\\textsf{Examples of rational numbers are: 5/6, 6/7, 4, 3, 0, etc.}


\textsf{An integer is a rational number which can be written without fractional or decimal}\\\textsf{part.}\\\textsf{Examples of integer are: 0, -1, -2, 3, 4, 5, etc. The positive integers are commonly }\\\textsf{called natural numbers. And the natural numbers including 0 are called whole}\\\textsf{numbers.}


\textsf{An irrational number is the real number which cannot be expressed in fractions of}\\\textsf{two integers.}


\textsf{Examples of irrational numbers are: }\sf{\pi,\ \sqrt[3]{2}, √(5), e, etc.}\ \textsf{These numbers are non}\\\textsf{terminating and non-recurring decimals and they do not follow any specific pattern.}


\textsf{Now, the first option in the question is incorrect because 5/6 is not an integer as}\\\textsf{5/6=0.83333...., which is a non-terminating recurring decimal. And a whole }\\\textsf{number is simply a non-negative integer.}


\textsf{5/6 is not a irrational number because it can be expressed in terms of fractions of}\\\textsf{two integers, 5 and 6.}
