Is a number divided by zero irrational?

That is not what mathematicians mean by an irrational number, which is a number with an infinitely long decimal expansion. You will note that since division is the inverse of multiplication, dividing by small numbers has the same effect as multiplying by large numbers, and so dividing by zero, which is an infinitely small number, is equivalent to multiplying by infinity. The result in most cases is deemed to have no mathematical meaning.


Why repeating decimals happen?

How the use of scientific notation?

Scientific notation is used to express very large or very small numbers. instead of writing 15,000,000, you can express the same number by writing it as 1.5 * 107 or, you could express the very small number .00000015 as 1.5 * 10-7 to express a number in scientific notation, simply place a decimal point after the first number (in a large number) or before the last number (in a very small number) and multiply by ten to the nth power, where n is the number of digits following the decimal point (in a large number) or negate the number of digits before the decimal (in a very small number).
