Explanation:

Step1: Simplify $\sqrt{25}$

$\sqrt{25} = 5$

Step2: Identify number types

$\frac{2}{3}$ is rational; 5 is rational.

Step3: Sum the two rational numbers

$\frac{2}{3} + 5 = \frac{2}{3} + \frac{15}{3} = \frac{17}{3}$

Step4: Classify the result

$\frac{17}{3}$ is a rational number (ratio of integers).

Answer:

1. rational
