Answer:

Every natural number is also a rational number but not every rational number is a natural number because the set of natural numbers is a subset of the set of rational numbers.

Explanation:

Since all natural numbers, n can be written as n/1. Thus all natural numbers are rational. Since 3/4 is a rational number but not natural thus all rational numbers are not natural.

Hint:

Natural numbers : All positive numbers except zero.

Rational numbers: All numbers in the form of p/q, where q ≠ 0 (p,q are integers)
