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.
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
Can every rational fraction be written as a repeating decimal?
Any rational number is either a repeating decimal, or a terminating decimal.
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.
Can a rational number be written in a decimal?
Yes, all rational numbers can be written as decimal numbers.
Is a repeating decimal rational or irrational?
A repeating decimal is rational.
How do you change fractions to decimal and how to determine if it is rational or irrational?
To change a fraction to the equivalent decimal:Divide the top number by the bottom number.Regarding rational / irrational:Not to worry. Every fraction that you can write with numbers is rational,and so the equivalent decimal is too, even if it never ends.
When A calculator is set to show up to 10 digits of a decimal number and yields the following 10 digit output .3263263263. Is it possible to determine whether or not this number is rational why?
The decimal shows a repeating pattern. Repeating decimals are rational.

A decimal that can be written into a fraction is called?
The decimal representation of a rational number.
Is 8.2 a rational number?
Yes. Any terminating decimal is a rational number. Any repeating decimal also.
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 decimal a rational number?

When a number is written in decimal and acirc and 128 and 139 form how do we know if the number is a rational and acirc and 128 and 139 number?
You cannot. There is no way to determine if the number has or has not been rounded and so no way to determine if the number is a terminating, repeating or other form of decimal number. Without that information you cannot tell if it is rational.

Is 0.5 a rational or irrational decimal?
