1. What is a rational number?

Any ordinary number of arithmetic: Any whole number, fraction, mixed number or decimal; together with its negative image.

A rational number is a nameable number, in the sense that we can name it in the standard way we name whole numbers, fractions and mixed numbers. "Five." "Six thousand eight hundred nine." "Nine hundred twelve millionths." "Three and five-eighths."
