Answer: A rational number (The third option).
Step-by-step explanation:
1. By definition, a rational numbers has the following form: [tex]\frac{a}{b}[/tex], where [tex]a[/tex] and [tex]b[/tex] are integers and [tex]b\neq0[/tex].
2. Therefore, when you add two rational numbers, the result will be a rational number.
3. An example is shown below:
[tex]\frac{1}{5}+\frac{2}{5}=\frac{3}{5}[/tex]
The result is a fraction whose numerator and denominator are integers.
