The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- For example, 3/7 is a rational number, as is every integer.
- The set of all rational numbers is often referred to as "the rationals", and is closed under addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division by a nonzero rational number.
- It is a field under these operations and therefore also called the field of rationals or the field of rational numbers.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Rational number article was read about 180,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 67 and blocks with 62: each hit it takes is cut by 25 %.
