Detailed Solution

Now, we have the number as

25

.
It can be observed that it is in the form of a fraction, whose denominator i.e.,

5

is an irrational number as it is a non-terminating and non-repeating decimal.
Now, as per the definition of a rational number, the denominator must be a non-zero integer.
But here, the denominator is not an integer but an irrational number.
So,

25

is an irrational number.
Hence, the given statement is false.
So, the correct option is 2.
