4-7 The Real Numbers
Recall that rational numbers can be written as
fractions. Rational numbers can also be written
as decimals that either terminate or repeat.

4-7 The Real Numbers
Irrational numbers can only be written as
decimals that do not terminate or repeat. If a
whole number is not a perfect square, then its
square root is an irrational number.

Caution!
A repeating decimal may not appear to
repeat on a calculator, because
calculators show a finite number of digits.
4-7 The Real Numbers
The set of real numbers consists of the set of
rational numbers and the set of irrational numbers.

The Density Property of real numbers
states that between any two real
numbers is another real number. This
property is also true for rational
numbers, but not for whole numbers or
integers. For instance, there is no integer
between –2 and –3.
