Answer:

Rational

Step-by-step explanation:

A rational number can be written as a fraction of the form.

[tex] \frac{a}{b} \: where \: b \ne0[/tex]

and a and b are integers.

[tex]9.99 = \frac{999}{100} [/tex]

Hence in this case a=999 and b=100.

Since both are integers with b being a non-zero integer, we conclude that 9.99 is a rational number.
