A decimal is a rational number if:* It terminates - i.e., it has a finite number of decimal digits.
* It doesn't terminate, but it repeats the same pattern over and over - possibly after a finite number of digits that are not included in the pattern. For example, 0.145145145145..., or 3.125252525...

Is 0.454545... an irrational number?
No. It is a rational number. Any repeating decimal or terminating decimal is rational.
Is a decimal a considered a real number and a rational number?
Decimals are real. They can be rational or irrational.
Is 7.11 rational or irrational?
A number with a finite number of decimal digits is always rational. (If the number of decimal digits is infinite, the number is rational only if there is a repeating pattern.)
What is a rational number in decimal form?
It is still a rational number.
Is every rational number a repeating decimal?
No. A rational number is any terminating numeral. A repeating decimal is irrational.
Is decimal a rational number?
It depends. A terminating decimal is a rational number. A decimal which, after a finite number of places, becomes a repeating (or recurrent) decimal is also a rational number. A decimal that is not terminating, nor [eventually] settles into a recurring pattern is not a rational number. Note that the decimal need not become recurring immediately.
Is 8.2 a rational number?
Yes. Any terminating decimal is a rational number. Any repeating decimal also.
is 0.313111331 a rational or irrational number?
It is rational. An irrational number is a number that you cannot define by a fraction or a decimal. Since you wrote it as a decimal, it is rational.
Is 0.454545... an irrational number?
No. It is a rational number. Any repeating decimal or terminating decimal is rational.
is 27.5 rational or irrational?
It is rational. An irrational number is a number that you cannot define by a fraction or a decimal. Since you wrote it as a decimal, it is rational.
Is a decimal a considered a real number and a rational number?
Decimals are real. They can be rational or irrational.
Is 7.11 rational or irrational?
A number with a finite number of decimal digits is always rational. (If the number of decimal digits is infinite, the number is rational only if there is a repeating pattern.)
Is 2.33333333333 a rational number?
Since 2.33333... is a repeating decimal (or recurring decimal), it is a rational number.
What are the difference between decimal in rational and decimal in irrational?
A decimal rational number can be expressed as a fraction A decimal irrational number can not be expressed as a fraction
Why decimal is considered as rational number?
A decimal need not be a rational. A non-terminating, non recurring decimal is an irrational number. Only a terminating decimal or a recurring decimal is rational and that is because such a number can be expressed as a ratio of two integers.
Is 0.05 a rational or irrational number?
It is a rational number.
A decimal that can be written into a fraction is called?
The decimal representation of a rational number.
