The video tutorial explains the classification of numbers into different subsets, including rational, irrational, real, natural, whole numbers, and integers. It uses a Venn diagram to visually represent these classifications and provides examples to illustrate how numbers fit into these categories. The tutorial also touches on the concept of imaginary numbers, though it is not the focus. By the end, students should understand how to classify numbers and the relationships between different number sets.

Which of the following is a characteristic of a rational number?

• It cannot be written as a fraction.

• It is always an integer.

• It is always a whole number.
