Question

16. The Venn diagram below represents two sets of numbers.

?
Integers
Which of the following would be the best label for the set represented by the
shaded circle?

Answer 1

Answer: D) Rational Numbers

Any rational number is in the form p/q, where p,q are integers and q is nonzero.

If we made q = 1, then p/q turns into an integer which is why the set of integers is inside the set of rational numbers.

For instance, if p = 7 and q = 1, then p/q = 7/1 = 7 is an integer and it is rational too.
