Yes because 3/6 = 1/2 = 0.5
Decimals can be "terminating" "recurring" or "other." A terminating decimal is one which is finite. Recurring and other decimals continue on forever. For instance 0.5 is a terminating decimal. 0.729 is a terminating decimal. 0.3333333... is not a terminating decimal. pi (3.1415926535....) is not a terminating decimal.
Terminating Decimal
It is a finite decimal (i.e. one that is not infinitely recurring. Thus pi, e and root 2 are not terminating decimals).
One Third
The rational fraction, one third, can be represented as a non terminating decimal, with the digit 3 repeating for ever.

Yes.
A terminating decimal is a number whose decimal representation stops (or terminates) after a finite number of places. For example, 2.5, 2.3345688756 or even 325.452222222 A non-terminating decimal is one that goes on forever.
It is a finite decimal (i.e. one that is not infinitely recurring. Thus pi, e and root 2 are not terminating decimals).
0.36 is NOT a repeating decimal but a terminating one.

Repeating decimal. * * * * * It depends on the numbers! For example, 0.6 < 0.66... < 0.67 By the first inequality the repeatiing decimal is bigger, by the second the terminating one is bigger.
