No because any number that can be expressed as a fraction is a rational number and in this case the fraction is 1/3

When trying to represent an irrational number as a decimal there are two conditions:

  1. the part of after the decimal never terminates (which is met by the described number)
  2. the decimal part never repeats (which is NOT met by the described number)
