6 divided by 2 root 3 is a rational or irrational numbers

Answer»

The answer is given below :

We need to find if 6/(2√3) is a rational NUMBER or an irrational number.

Now,

6/(2√3)

= (3 × 2)/(2 × √3)

= 3/√3

= (√3 × √3)/√3

= √3

and since √3 is an irrational number,
6/(2√3) is also an irrational number.

IRRATIONAL NUMBER :

The number which cannot be expressed into the form p/Q, where p and q are INTEGERS with q ≠ 0, is CALLED an irrational number.

Example :

√2, √3, √5, and so on.
