Quick Q&A Before You Revise

Is every fraction a rational number, and is every rational number a fraction?

Every fraction with an integer numerator and non-zero integer denominator is a rational number. Every rational number can be written as such a fraction, but rational numbers also include negatives and integers written as n/1.

Why is division not associative for rational numbers?

Because (a ÷ b) ÷ c is generally not equal to a ÷ (b ÷ c). For example (8 ÷ 4) ÷ 2 = 1 but 8 ÷ (4 ÷ 2) = 4.

How many rational numbers lie between two given rational numbers?

Infinitely many. You can always take the average of the two to get one in between, then repeat with the new pairs endlessly.
