If the decimal doesn't terminate or repeat is is it a rational number still or not?
Not.
If it doesn if a decimal doesn't terminate or repeat is it still a rational number or not?
No, if a decimal does not terminate or repeat, it is not a rational number. Rational numbers can be expressed as a ratio of two integers, and their decimal representation either terminates or repeats after a certain point. Decimals that do not have a pattern and continue indefinitely are considered irrational numbers.
How do you tell if a number is rational or irrational?
a rational number repeats but terminates.ex:3.333333333. a irrational number doesn't terminate or repeat itself. ex:3.334334433444.
Why repeating decimals happen?
A repeating decimal is any rational number whose decimal representation does not terminate after a given number of digits. As only a very small quantity of the rational numbers terminate in their decimal representation, practically any rational number picked at random will be a repeating decimal.
What is the difference between the decimal expansion in irrational and rational numbers?
Decimals that terminate or repeat in some fashion are rational, while decimals that expand forever are irrational.
If the decimal doesn't terminate or repeat is is it a rational number still or not?
Not.
Is seven eight's a rational number?
7/8 is a rational number because rational numbers are fractions, numbers that terminate, numbers that repeat.

What is an irrational number that is a perfect square?
That isn't possible. Rational numbers either terminate or have a repeating pattern, and irrational numbers are all the rest. Perfect squares terminate, therefore they are rational.
What is the difference between the decimal expansion in irrational and rational numbers?
Decimals that terminate or repeat in some fashion are rational, while decimals that expand forever are irrational.
Must any rational number terminate?
Not always because any number that can be expressed as a fraction is a rational number as for example 0.666...recurring can be expressed as 2/3 as a fraction
Is negative pi rational or irrational?
-Pi is irrational, because it does not terminate or repeat. Whenever you multiply an irrational number by a rational number (-1), the result is an irrational number.
Is 17.1 rational?
Yes. Any number that can be expressed as a finite or repeating decimal is a rational number. Irrational numbers have decimal expansions that neither repeat nor terminate.
Will 0.54732814 produce a rational number when multiplied by 0.5?
The product of two rational numbers is a rational number. All decimal numbers that terminate or end with a repeating sequence of digits are rational numbers. As both 0.54732814 (as written) and 0.5 are terminating decimals, they are both rational numbers. As 0.54732814 is a rational number and 0.5 is a rational number, their product will also be a rational number.
Are repeating decimals rational?
Yes. Rational numbers are numbers or decimals that repeat or terminate. Irrational numbers do not. For example π is an irrational number.
