RATIONAL NUMBERS In mathematics‚ a rational number is any number that can be expressed as the quotient or fraction p/q of two integers‚ with the denominator q not equal to zero. Since q may be equal to 1‚ every integer is a rational number. The set of all rational numbers is usually denoted by a boldface Q it was thus named in 1895 byPeano after quoziente‚ Italian for "quotient". The decimal expansion of a rational number always either terminates after a finite number of digits or begins to repeat the

In doing so‚ it will attempt to describe any similarities and differences between the two. Critical thinking is the process of rationally analyzing and attempting to solve a problem accurately without guessing. The first step in critical thinking is to understand the problem thoroughly which will allow you to restate the problem in different ways to learn about it and other related issues

very different trading patterns. Mexico trades mainly with the United States‚ Brazil trades about equally with the United States and with the European Union; Mexico does much more trade relative to its GDP. Explain these differences using the gravity model. Mexico is quite close to the U.S.‚ but it is far from the European Union (EU). So it makes sense that it trades largely with the U.S. Brazil is far from both‚ so its trade is split between the two. Mexico trades more than Brazil in part because it
