Question 3 • Algebra II

Which of the following will result in a rational answer?

Answer
A
multiplying a fraction by a repeating decimal
B
multiplying pi by a fraction
C
adding the square root of a non perfect square to a whole number
D
adding the square root of a perfect square to pi

Explanation

A fraction is rational, and a repeating decimal is also rational. The product of two rational numbers is rational, so multiplying a fraction by a repeating decimal gives a rational answer. The other choices involve π or the square root of a non-perfect square, which are irrational; the stated operations do not make their results rational.
