Oh honey, we call that a "repeating decimal." It's like that annoying song that gets stuck in your head and just won't go away. So, when you see those numbers looping around like a broken record, you know you've got yourself a repeating decimal.
A decimal number that ends or recurs is called a rational number. In decimal form, a rational number either terminates (ends) or repeats (recurs) after a certain point. This is because rational numbers can be expressed as the ratio of two integers, allowing for a finite or repeating decimal representation.
Ah, those are special numbers called "repeating decimals." When a decimal number repeats the same digit or group of digits over and over, it creates a pattern that goes on forever. It's like nature's way of adding a little rhythm and harmony to our mathematical world.
Decimal numbers that end or recur are known as terminating or repeating decimals. 0.75 is a terminating decimal. 0.4444 repeating is a repeating decimal.
