Yes, unless it is an infinite, non-recurring number.


What is set of real numbers?

A real number is a rational number that is not imaginary. 5, 3/4, and 8.6 are all real numbers. 3i is not a real number.


What number is irrational?

An irrational number is a real number that cannot be expressed as a ratio of two integers. In decimal terms, it is a real number that has either a terminating decimal or an infinitely recurring decimal. This would apply whatever the integer base, such as binary, octal, hexadecimal.


How do you tell if a number is irrational?

If it is a terminating or recurring decimal then it is not irrational. If it is an infinite, non-recurring decimal, it is irrational.


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.


Is pi a recurring decimal a terminating decimal or an irrational number?

Pi is an irrational number


What is the difference between recurring and non recurring decimal?

A recurring decimal is a rational number, a non-recurring one may be rational (for example 0.2 = 1/5) or irrational.


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 is the greatest possible remainder for a divisor of 28 and a dividend of any number?

The greatest possible remainder is divisor is just less than 28. If the dividend is an integer, then it is 27. But if the dividend is any real number, the greatest possible remainder is 27.999.... (recurring).Strictly speaking, though, the decimal can only be "nearly recurring". This is because 27.999 recurring = 28 and the remainder cannot be 28.The greatest possible remainder is divisor is just less than 28. If the dividend is an integer, then it is 27.
