Math Problem Statement
You might be surprised to know there are just as many rational numbers (numbers that can be written as fractions) between 0 and 1 as there are counting numbers. It's possible to count the rational numbers between 0 and 1 (although you could never finish). can you think of a way to do it? Can you do summarize the answer in one paragraph and provide examples?
