Answer 1

Irrational

Explanation:

The constant
`\pi`, or "pi", is an irrational mathematic constant that corresponds to a non-terminating (never-ending decimal). Because there are an infinite number of digits in pi, pi cannot be expressed as a fraction and therefore is irrational.

Multiplying or adding a rational number does not make pi rational, and therefore the desired answer is (D) Irrational.
