Bijection between $mathbb{Q}$ and $mathbb{N}timesmathbb{Q}$

$begingroup$


I want to prove that $|mathbb{Q}| = |mathbb{N}timesmathbb{Q}|$, but I have no idea how to find bijection between these sets. Can you help me?

Do you have bijections between $Bbb N$ and $Bbb {N times N}$ and between $Bbb N$ and $Bbb Q$? Usually you would when this question comes up. Compose those.

    Ross Millikan's answer is definitely the way to go for explicitly demonstrating a bijection, but it is also possible to invoke the Cantor-Bernstein-Schroeder theorem to prove this is true, simply by finding injections/surjections both ways (which I find to be easier in practice).
