Solution
To identify the rational numbers from the given list, we first recall that a rational number is any number that can be expressed as the ratio of two integers (a fraction), including terminating decimals and repeating decimals.
Analysis of each number:
- (A): Irrational. It's a non-terminating, non-repeating decimal.
- (B): Rational. It is a terminating decimal and can be written as .
- (C): Rational. It is an integer, which can be expressed as .
- (D): Rational. It is an integer, which can be expressed as .
- (E): Rational. This is a repeating decimal and can be written as a fraction .
- (F): Rational. , which is an integer, and can be written as .
- (G): Irrational. This is a non-repeating, non-terminating decimal.
- (H): Rational. It is a terminating decimal and can be written as .
- (I): Rational. It is a fraction of two integers.
- (J): Irrational. It is a non-terminating, non-repeating decimal.
- (K): Rational. It is an integer, which can be written as .
- (L): Rational. It is a fraction of two integers.
Rational numbers in the list are:
- B.
- C.
- D.
- E.
- F.
- H.
- I.
- K.
- L.
Thus, the correct answers are B, C, D, E, F, H, I, K, and L.
