A recurring decimal can always be converted to a fraction with integer numerator and denominator, and that is precisely the definition of a rational number. Example: let the recurring number be 0.3121212... Call the number "x" 100x = 31.21212... x = 0.31212... Subtract the two equations: 99x = 30.9 990x = 309 x = 309/990 This can be simplified, but the point is that I converted the recurring decimal to a fraction, with integer numerator and denominator.

It must be a generalised rational number. Otherwise, if you select a rational number to multiply, then you will only prove it for that number.
309 is not prime. 309 = 3 * 103

No, 2 is not a factor of 309 because it does not evenly divide into 309. The factors of 309 are 1, 3, 103, and 309.
3 x 103 = 309
no
15.45 is a decimal fraction and, being a decimal representation, it IS in its simplest form. The equivalent rational fraction is simplest form is 309/20.
