Can decimal numbers be rational?

Any terminating decimal is rational since it can be express as a fraction. Recurring decimals are also rational. E.g 3.456 = 3456/1000 or 4.555... = 41/9


Is it possible to express every decimal as a fraction?

Not all decimals can be expressed as fractions. Only terminating and recurring decimals can be expressed as fractions. eg a recurring decimal: 0.3333333... = 1/3 A terminating decimal: 0.125 = 1/8 A decimal that does not recurr or terminate, cannot be expressed as a fraction. eg Pi = 3.141592654... Pi can not be expressed as a fraction as it does not recurr or terminate. It can only be approximated to a fraction. eg Pi ≈ 355/113 but is correct to 6 decimal places.

When you divide 22 by 7 we get a non-terminating recurring number. Then why is pi called an irrational number?

22/7 is not equal to pi but only close to being equal to pi.When you divide 22 by 7 you get a rational number where the decimal numbers...repeat over and over again.22/7 =3.142857142857142857142857142857142857142857142857...You can not express pi as a fraction.When you write it out in decimal form the numbers never repeat.Those are the reasons that it is called irrational.


How do you find the value of an irrational square root?

You can either express it as a number in a radical - possibly in the hope or expectation that it will cancel out. Or you approximate it using one of several methods. Since it is irrational, you can never write down its value in the form of a ratio, terminating or recurring decimal.
