is the square of 100 rational
Yes. It is rational. @Sally16a @~
what times what equals 100?
Isn't square supposed to mean 100x100? and square root means what number by itself equals to 100? i am not too sure by what you are saying @zzr0ck3r
I thought it said square root
Yes that was what I was confused on by the way that you were saying it.
lol
and rational number squared is a rational number
@Sally16a If you square 100, you are basically multiplying 100 by itself (100x100). The product will be equal to 10000, and this is rational because you can write it as a fraction. Irrational numbers, like pi or infinity, can't be written as fractions, therefore, they are irrational.
not just fractions but ratios of integers
