Given,

The number is -1/2.

As the number is in negative form, so it cannot be natural number or whole.

The natural numbers are those number which starts from 1 and the whole number are those number which starts from 0.

On simplifying the number it will give - 0.5 which is not integer form.

So, the number is not integer.

Thus, -1/2 is a rational number.

Hence, option A is correct
