What's a iterger?
It seems that there was a typo in the previous response. The correct term is "integer," not "iterger."
An integer is a number that can be positive, negative, or zero but has no fractional or decimal part. Examples of integers include -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, and so on.
On the other hand, a rational number is any number that can be written as a fraction. This includes integers because they can be expressed as fractions with a denominator of 1. For example, -3 can be written as -3/1, and 0 can be written as 0/1.
Therefore, -3/4 is a rational number since it can be expressed as a fraction. However, since it has a fractional part, it is not an integer.
