Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

The definition of a rational number is a number that can be represented as a fraction. Since 56/7 is a fraction it must be a rational number. An irrational number is a number that cannot be represented as a fraction because it never ends and repeats without a pattern forever. An example of this is pi because pi can never exactly be represented as a fraction.
