When the answer (called the quotient) starts repeating, put a vertical line over the repeating part. For example, in 10/7 = 1.428571... the six digits after the decimal point repeat endlessly, so put a line over them. Likewise, 1/3 = 0.333..., so just put 0.3 with a line over the 3. The line over the repeated block is called an overline or vinculum. In complicated fractional quotients like 13/43, the repeating block can be HUGE (because both the dividend and divisor are prime numbers - in this case it's 0.302325581395348837209...). Keep dividing until the block repeats completely once, to be sure, and it can take a lot of long division before it does. All decimal (rational) fractions will either terminate in a fixed number of digits, or eventually resolve with a repeating block.

Is irrational mean negative numbers?
No. An irrational number has a whole number, followed by a decimal, which has no repeating pattern to it. For example, Pi: 3.14159265358979...... it goes on forever, with no pattern. unlike 5 and one-third: 5.33333333333333.... it goes on forever, but there is a pattern to it. or 4.12121212121212

What is 2 over 3 in a decimal?
0.6 Recurring (if you don't know what that is, it basically means it goes on forever, like 0.66666666666666666666666666666...). You can show it by putting 0.6 with a dot above the six.
What is the entire decimal approximation for pi?
To have an "entire approximation" in itself is an oxymoron. We have to approximate pi because you cannot express the true value of pi as a decimal. It goes on forever. This is an invalid question. Pi is generally approximated, however, as 22/7 or 3.14.
What is pi times 10?
Pi goes on forever. However, most people equal pi to 3.14. Whenever you multiply something by 10, you move the decimal place one to the right. So, in this case, the answer would be 31.4.

Is 0.66 a decimal that goes on forever?
0.66 itself doesn't go on forever. If you are trying to express two thirds as a decimal, then it is 0.66 recurring. So that will go on forever.
