A decimal in which one or more digits repeat indefinitely?
The name for a decimal of this kind is "recurring".
Does pi's digits ever repeat or end?
No. Pi is a transcendental number which is a kind of irrational number. It has an infinite decimal representation which does not end nor does it go into a recurring cycle. That does not mean that there are no repeated digits, it simply means that digits may repeat themselves for a little while but then continue in what appears to be a random pattern. Not only does it not have an infinite decimal representation, but infinite binary, ternary, etc representations.
What kind of decimal indicates a rational number?
A terminating decimal or a decimal that, after a finite number of digits, settles into a repeating pattern (known as a recurring decimal). This need not happen straight after the decimal point.
0.5 is what kind of number?
A decimal, or specifically a decimal fraction. The definition of a decimal fraction is "A decimal having no digits to the left of the decimal point except zero, such as 0.2 or 0.00354." Hope this helps!
Is -3.14 a negative integer?
There are non-zero digits after the decimal point, so it is not an integer of any kind.
What do you call the kind of decimal that goes on forever and does not have digits which repeat?
Irrational.

How do you call this kind of decimal 0.44?
A decimal to two digits, perhaps.

There are non-zero digits after the decimal point, so it is not an integer of any kind.
What kind of decimal that does not end or repeat?
An irrational number, for example pi or e or the square root of 2
What is pi in decimal from?
Pi is an irrational number, a decimal that won't stop. It has been calculated to ten trillion digits, which is kind of silly because just 39 digits are enough to calculate the circumference of a circle the size of the observable universe with an error no larger than the radius of a hydrogen atom.To five places, it's 3.14159
How do you convert fractions to recuring decimals?
Converting fractions to any kind of decimal is done in exactly the same way: divide the numerator by the denominator. The reverse of converting a recurring decimal to a fraction is done: Look at the digits that recur in the decimal. Count how many there are and then put the recurring digits as the numerator of a fraction with that number of 9s as the denominator. eg to convert 0.33333.... to a fraction, see that the recurring decimal is the digit 3, thus the fraction would be 3/9 = 1/3. eg to convert 0.09090909... to a fraction, see that the recurring decimal is 09 (or 9) and there are 2 digits (the leading 0 is important in counting the number of digits), thus the fraction is 09/99 or 9/99 = 1/11. eg: to convert: 0.142857142857.... to a fraction, see that the digits 142857 recur and there are 6 of them, thus it is 142857/999999 which reduces down (simplifies) to 1/7.
What is pi to the last 14 digits?
pi is a transcendental number, which is a kind of irrational number. That means that the decimal representation of pi does not end (nor does it have a recurring sequence). There is, therefore, no last digit.
What kind of decimal is 0.200200200200200200.?
