What is a decimal number called when it ends or terminates?
A terminating number. It can also be called a rational number.
Is the number 0.333.... repeats forever therefore it is irrational?
No because any number that can be expressed as a fraction is a rational number and in this case the fraction is 1/3When trying to represent an irrational number as a decimal there are two conditions:the part of after the decimal never terminates (which is met by the described number)the decimal part never repeats (which is NOT met by the described number)
Is 8.95 an irrational number?
No. Any decimal that ends and doesn't go on forever is a rational number.
Is 0.1010010001 rational or irrational?
If the pattern continues, with one more zero in each group, then it is IRRATIONAL. For a number to be rational, EXACTLY THE SAME pattern must repeat over and over, at least after a certain point.
What dose terminating mean in maths?
The given number has a specified number of digits. A non-terminating number, is one were the digits go to inifinity. e.g. Terminating ; 3.333 Non-terminating(recurs to infinity) ; 3.333.... ( Note the use of three or more stops to indicate recurrance).
Where is the call when a decimal number ends or terminates?
There is no place where there is a call!
What is a decimal number called when it ends or terminates?
A terminating number. It can also be called a rational number.
A decimal that ends or terminates is called what?
terminating and non-terminating decimal
What is a decimal whose digits end?
a terminating decimal. An example is the decimal for 1/4 is .25 and that ends or terminates.
Why is a decimal rational?
Some decimals are rational, and some aren't. A decimal is rational when it terminates or repeats.
Is 1.732050808 rational or irrational?
The number has a decimal representation that terminates (after 9 digits). If it terminates, the number is rational.
Is 0.36 repeating irrational?
No. It is rational: 0.363636... = 36/99 = 4/11 Any decimal which terminates or ends in a repeating sequence of digits is a rational number.
Is 110 equivalent to a decimal that terminates or does not terminate?
It is a decimal that terminates.
Is 2.138 an irrational number?
No, because the decimal terminates after the 8.
Is 3.1214122144 an irrational number?
No, this is a rational number.It is 975,441,317/312,500,000.In general, any number which has a decimal representation that either terminates (ends after some finite length) or repeats is a rational number (not an irrational one). Because this decimal expansion terminates, it is a rational number.However, there are an infinite number of irrational numbers which begin with 3.1214122144.... Generally, we notate the approximation with the ellipses (...) and know we cannot record in a decimal form its exact value.NAOMI WAS HERE
Can irrational numbers be decimals?
An irrational number by definition can not be exactly represented by a decimal that terminates or recurs. The moment a decimal terminates, or settles into a repeating pattern, it is rational.
Is 3.67 a terminating decimal?
As written there is nothing to indicate that anything follows the 7, so it terminates (ends). → Yes, 3.67 is a terminating decimal.
