If the decimal number can be expressed as a fraction (with one whole number over another), then it is a rational decimal number.

So 7/5 is a rational number, and remains as such even if expressed in decimal form (of 1.4).

Is 10.01 a rational or irrational number?

10.01 is Rational. IRRATIONAL are those decimals, which recur to infinity and there is NO regular order in the decimal digits. pi = 3.141592..... is Irrational But 3.333333..... is rational , because the decimal digits are in a regular order. Definitely an irrational number cannot be converted into a rational number/ratio/fraction/quotient. So 10.01 is rational because it can be converted to a ratio/fraction/quotient of 10 1/100 or 1001/100
