Are all terming and repeating decimals rational numbers explain?
Yes they are.A terminating number such as a.bcdef is equivalent to abcdef/1000000. A repeating number such as a.bcdbcd... is equivalent to abcd/999 [the number of 9s is the length of the repeating string of digits.] So, in both cases the number can be written in the form of p/q where p and q are integers and q > 0.
When writing a repeating decimal as a fraction does the number of repeating digits you use matter Explain.?
Yes, of course. Different denominators in the rational equivalent give rise to different lengths of repeating strings.
What is 0.5 repeating in fraction in simplest form explain?

Which number can be multiplied to a rational number to explain that the product of two rational numbers is rational?
It must be a generalised rational number. Otherwise, if you select a rational number to multiply, then you will only prove it for that number.
How do you explain a method to compare fractions?
Convert them to decimals and order them least to greatest.
