✓
Answer
Every real number is either rational or irrational. Solution: Consider, $\big(2+\sqrt{3}\big)$ and $\big(2-\sqrt{3}\big)$ which are two irrational numbers. $\big(2+\sqrt{3}\big)+\big(2-\sqrt{3}\big)=4,$ which is a rational number. Consider, $\sqrt{3}$ and $\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$ which are two irrational numbers. $\sqrt{3}\times\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}=1,$ which is a rational number. Every real number can either be a rational number or an irrational number. Hence, the correct opion is (d).
