Number Systems Exercise Ex. 1.1
Solution 1
Yes zero is a rational number as it can be represented in the 
form, where p and q are integers and q 
0 as 
etc.
Concept Insight: Key idea to answer this question is "every integer is a rational number and zero is a non negative integer". Also 0 can be expressed in form in various ways as 0 divided by any number is 0. simplest is 
.

Solution 3
There are infinite rational numbers in between 3 and 4.
3 and 4 can be represented as
respectively.
3 and 4 can be represented as
respectively.Now rational numbers between 3 and 4 are
Concept Insight: Since there are infinite number of rational numbers between any two numbers so the answer is not unique here. The trick is to convert the number to equivalent
form by multiplying and dividing by the number atleast 1 more than the rational numbers to be inserted.Solution 4
There are infinite rational numbers between 
Now rational numbers between are
Concept Insight: Since there are infinite number of rational numbers between any two numbers so the answer is not unique here. The trick is to convert the number to equivalent
form by multiplying and dividing by the number at least 1 more than the rational numbers required.
Alternatively for any two rational numbers a and b,
is also a rational number which lies between a and b.
