Answer:

Rational ...................

Explanation:

A rational number is a number that can be express as the ratio of two integers. A number that cannot be expressed that way is irrational. For example, one third in decimal form is 0.33333333333333 (the threes go on forever). However, one third can be express as 1 divided by 3, and since 1 and 3 are both integers, one third is a rational number
