Question
Why is the product of two rational numbers always rational?
Select from the drop-down menus to correctly complete the proof. Let a/b and c/d represent two rational numbers. This means a, b, c, and d are? (A.integers / B.irrational numbers)and b and d are not 0. The product of the numbers is ac/bd, where bd is not 0. Both ac and bd are?(A irrational numbers/ B.integers)and bd is not 0. Because ac/bd is the ratio of two?(A.irrational numbers/B.integers)the product is a rational number.
