Question
Which of the following is a rational number?

Answer

  1. $\sqrt{225}$
    Solution:
    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.
    $\sqrt{2},$ $\sqrt{23}$ and 0.1010010001... are irrational numbers, since they cannot be expressed in the form $\frac{\text{p}}{\text{q}}.$
    $\sqrt{225}=15=\frac{15}{1}$ is a rational number.
    Hence, the correct opion is (c).
