    In mathematics, a rational number is a number that can


    be expressed as the fraction:

    𝒑
    𝒒

    • The numerator is 𝑝
    • The denominator is 𝑞 (MUST be different to
    zero).
    ¡¡¡Some properties of integers!!!

    ❖ THEY ARE NOT COUNTABLE


    For example, in ℕ and ℤ you can count.

    You can count from 1 to 17


    You can count from −11 to 3
    1 6
    Can you count from to ?
    2 8

    ❖ FRACTIONS DON’T HAVE SUCCESIVE NUMBERS


    For example, in ℕ and ℤ you can know the next number
    of any number.

    The next number of 3 is 4


    The next number of 251 is 252
    The next number of −32 is −31

    What is the next number of ?

    Proper and improper fractions
    Fractions can be classified as either proper or improper
    based on the numerator and denominator.

    ❖ PROPER FRACTIONS
    A proper fraction is a fraction were the numerator is less
    than the denominator.

    ❖ IMPROPER FRACTIONS
    An improper fraction is a fraction were the
    numerator is greater or equal to the
    denominator.
