Read the following prompt and type your response in the space provided.
Sonia is creating a visual diagram to show the relationship between rational numbers and whole numbers. She draws it to show that some whole numbers are rational numbers and some are not. Is this correct? Explain why or why not.
No, this is not correct. All whole numbers are rational numbers. A rational number is any number that can be expressed as a fraction, and whole numbers can be expressed as fractions by taking the numerator as the whole number and the denominator as 1. Therefore, all whole numbers can be represented as rational numbers.
