Q

Suppose the number 18. Can you think of two integers such that when you divide the first integer by the second integer, the result is 18?

A

36 and 2 are integers. Note that 36 ÷ 2 = 18. Since there are two integers such that when you divide the first integer (36) by the second integer (2) the result is 18, then 18 is a rational number.
