Rational numbers are numbers that can be expressed as fractions p/q where p and q are integers and q ≠ 0. Every integer is a rational number, but not every rational number is an integer. Zero is the additive identity and 1 is the multiplicative identity for rational numbers. Between any two rational numbers, there are an infinite number of rational numbers.
