Detailed Solution

Here, we need to find whether every whole number is a rational number.
The set of whole numbers is the collection of numbers from 0 to infinite.
The whole numbers are {0,1,2,3,4,5…….}.
Rational numbers are those numbers which can be expressed in the form

p q

where ‘q’ is not zero.
Let us consider any whole number

x .

Then we can write it as,

x = \frac{x}{1},

which is of the form

\frac{p}{q}, q = 1 .

Since every whole number can be represented in the form of a rational number, thus every whole number is a rational number.
Hence, the statement is true.
Therefore, the correct option is 1.
