No, because repeating decimals never stop repeating, so it would be impossible to have a different number that does not repeat.
Some decimals stop, some keep on going. The ones that repeat are known as recurring decimals.
No, it is rational. Numbers whose decimal digits either stop or repeat can be written as a fraction and so are rational.
Some decimals repeat. Some decimals go on forever. Some decimals stop. Those are called terminating decimals.
It is a repeating decimal.

Terminating Decimal
A terminating decimal is a number that stops dividing after a number of decimal points and is therefore a rational number.For instance, 1/2 = 0.5. (so 0.5 is a rational number because it can be written as a fraction).Terminating number or better known as terminating decimal has an end. It has to stop after the decimal point.Examples:1/2 = 0.51/4 = 0.25
a repeating or recurring decimal
The name for a decimal of this kind is "recurring".
They never repeat in any pattern. If they never repeated, you could have at most 10 digits after the decimal point and therefore the decimal representation would be terminating.
If you repeat the pattern, adding one more zero every time, then no. To qualify as a "repeating decimal", the same digits have to repeat over and over.
