No, actually 2/5 is equal to .4 which is perfectly rational. Irrational Numbers have an infinitely long decimal expansion. This is just one digit.

Any rational number divided by any other rational number gives another rational number. Having an infinitely long decimal expansion is a necessary but not sufficient criterion for irrationality... for example, 1/3 is rational, though its decimal expansion is the infinitely long 0.33333333...
