    Proof involving the Archimedean Property

    Thanks for the advice. So if I understand correctly, we have three cases: 1) x is an integer. Then, we can say m=x 2) x is rational. Then by the Archimedean property, we an find integers that are strictly greater and less than x, so we can let m be an integer such that m=x+1/2, then...
