Answer 1

Answer:

Option (B)

Step-by-step explanation:

Properties of a rational number:

1). A decimal number which has the repeating numbers after decimal is a rational number.

Example: 2.134134134......

Here 134 is repeating after decimal so the number is a rational number.

2). A decimal number which can be written as a fraction is a rational number.

Example: 0.25 = $\frac{1}{4}$

Here 0.25 can be written as a fraction $\frac{1}{4}$ therefore, its a rational number.

In the given options,

Option A

No repeating numbers in first number therefore its an irrational numbers.

Option B

0.684 = $\frac{171}{250}$

Option C

First number is an irrational number.

Option D

First number is an irrational number.

Therefore, Option (B) is the answer.
