Answer:
Explanation:
A rational number is a number that can be expressed as a ratio or fraction of two integers, where the denominator is not zero. Let's evaluate each option:
A) 0.12345: This is a decimal, but it can be expressed as 12345/100000, which is a ratio of two integers. Therefore, it is a rational number.
B) √23: This is an irrational number because it cannot be expressed as a simple fraction. It's a non-repeating, non-terminating decimal.
C) √36: The square root of 36 is 6, which is a whole number. Whole numbers can be expressed as ratios of integers (e.g., 6/1), so it is a rational number.
D) 2√3: This is also an irrational number because it cannot be expressed as a simple fraction.
So, the rational numbers among the options are A) 0.12345 and C) √36.
