In a college class I was asked this question on a quiz in regards to sets:
All integers are fractions. T/F.
I answered False because if an integer is written in fraction notation it is then classified as a rational number. The teacher said the answer was True and gave me the link . As a teacher of mathematics in the K-12 system I have always taught that integers were all whole numbers above and below zero, and including zero. All of the resources I have used agree to my definition. Please clarify this for me.
What is the truth, or are she and I just mincing words?
