                     (c) sometimes a rational number and sometimes an
                     irrational number

               15    Mr. Rahul lives in an undeveloped area where there is no facility of proper education.
                     But one thing is available in that area i.e., network. Since he was very keen to take
                     education, so he decided to complete his education through e-learning.One day he was
                     studying number system, where he learnt about rational numbers, irrational numbers
                     and decimal numbers, etc.
