Answers to the Worksheet:
1. (d)
A rational number cannot have a non-terminating or non-repeating decimal form.
2. (c)
Between two rational numbers, there are infinitely many rational numbers.

number between them.
3. (d)
The product of two irrational numbers can be rational or irrational depending on the
two numbers.
For example, 3 3 is 3 which is a rational number whereas 2 4 is 8 which
is an irrational number. As 3, 2, 4 are irrational.
Hence, option D is correct.
4. (a) 7 is an irrational number.
