Which of these numbers are irrational? (Choose all that apply.)
Write (the block repeating forever) as a fraction in lowest terms. What is the denominator ?
How many integers satisfy ?
In the proof that has no solution with , we write: "Since is even, is even." Which fact justifies this step?
A student copies the proof for to "prove" that is irrational: "Suppose with as small as possible. Then is divisible by , so is divisible by ; write . Then , so — a smaller solution." Since , something is wrong. Which step fails?
Let . Which statement is true?
Which pair is a counterexample to the claim "if and are irrational, then is irrational"?
Which Lean statement says that is not complete, using the set ? (IsLUB S b means " is a least upper bound of ".)
Write repetend_length(p, q) for integers and : the length of the repeating block of the decimal expansion of , or 0 if the decimal terminates. Use long division and remember the position at which each remainder first appeared. For example gives 6, gives 1, and gives 0.
