First of all , do not use the phrase ' not rational' . The word in the English language, and mathematics is 'IRRATIONAL'. Net 1.234 is rational; it can be converted to a ratio(fraction). For irrational numbers the decimals go to inifinity and there is no regular order in the decimal digits. 'pi' is probably the most well known irrational numbers at pi = 3.141592654... The three terminl dots/stops indicate to mathemticians, that the number goes to infinity. Notice also, there is no regular order of digits in the decimal moiety. Since the number given ends at '4' , then it does not go to infinity, hernce it is rational . To convert to a ratio (fraction) 1.234 = 1 234/1000 Cancel down by '2' 1 117/500 (THis is the fraction in its lowest terms).
