Question
An irrational number between $\sqrt{2}$ and $\sqrt{3}$ is:
✓
Answer
- $\pi$ is irrational and $\frac{22}{7}$ is rational.
Solution:
A number which can neither be expressed as a terminating decimal nor as a repeating decimal is called an irrational number.
So, $\pi=3.141592...$ is irrational.
The numbers of the form $\frac{\text{p}}{\text{q}},$ where p and q are integers and $\text{q}\neq0,$ are known as rational numbers.
So, $\frac{22}{7}$ is rational.
Hence, the correct option is (d).
