It is a rational number.

Explanation:

A rational number is any number which can be expressed as a fraction $\frac{p}{q}$ $p/q$ where $p and q$ $p and q$ are integers and $q$ $q$ is not equal to zero.

We can write that $10 = \frac{10}{1}$ $10=10/1$ . In this fraction both numerator and denominator are natural numbers so $10$ $10$ is a rational number.

Any natural number (like $2, 10, 1978$ $2,10,1978$ or other) or integer number (natural number or a number opposite to a natural one like $- 10, - 3$ $-10,-3$ )can be expressed as a fraction with the number in numerator and $1$ $1$ in denominator. Hence they are all rational numbers.
