What is a decimal in which a digit or a group of digits repeats without end?
It is a repeating decimal.
A decimal number in which a digit or group of digits repeats without end?
a decimal in which a digit or group of digits repeats without end
Do you put repeating sign over 6.667?
To show a repeating decimal you put a dot above the digit that repeats.
Can a fraction be expressed as a repeating number?
I assume you mean "repeating decimal". Yes. For example, 1/6 = 0.166666... after that, the digit "6" repeats over and over again. In other cases, it is more than one digit that repeats, over and over. Note that at first there may be other digits, that don't repeat later on.In general, any fraction (with integers on top and bottom), if converted into a decimal, will eventually start repeating. Conversely, any repeating decimal can be converted into a fraction.
How do you determine if a decimal is rational or not?
A decimal is a rational number if it ever ends, or if it repeats the same single digit or set of digits forever.
What is a decimal in which a digit or a group of digits repeats without end?
It is a repeating decimal.
What does repeated decimal mean?
A repeated decimal is a decimal representation of a number in which, following a finite string of digits, the decimal digits settles into a string which repeats itself again and again - forever. For example, 111.11/77 = 1.44298701298701... The repeating pattern 298701 appears after the first three digits of the decimal representation.

What are repeating decimals?
When you convert a fraction to a decimal sometimes the decimal repeats forever. For example 1/3 as a decimal = 0.333333333.... (or 0.3 "recurring"). Another example is 1/7=0.142857142857.... (or 0.142857 recurring).
What is the difference between a terminating and a repeating decimal?
A terminating decimal reaches an end after a finite number of digits whereas a repeating decimal, after a finite number of digits, has a string of decimals (also of finite length) that repeats forever. Thus 1.2356 is a terminating decimal. 1.456333... is a repeating decimal with the digit 3 repeating an infinite number of times. So also is 23.56142857142857...... where the string 142857 repeats to infinity. In fact, terminating decimals may be viewed as repeating decimals with zero repeating infinitely.
If a fraction can be written as a repeating decimal Only One digit Can Repeat over And over withoutbend?
No, there can be any finite number of repeating digits. For example, 1/9 = 0.101010... where 10 repeats. Division by 7 gives rise to a six-digit string which repeats.
What is meaning of repeating decimals?
If I understand your question, you want to know the meaning of the phrase "repeating decimal". It just means an infinite decimal expansion (a decimal with infinitely many digits) in which, from some point on, the same digit or group of digits just keeps repeating forever. Every rational number (fraction) has a decimal that either terminates (in which case it can be considered to be a repeating decimal in which the digit 0 keeps repeating; 1/2 = 0.5 = 0.5000000000...) or repeats. An irrational number has a decimal expansion that never repeats. For example, 1/3 = 0.33333333333...; 1/7 = 0.142857142857142857...; 1/30 = 0.03333333333.... and is often represented with a line above the repeating number

What does period of the underlined digits mean?
Oh, dude, the period of the underlined digits is just the number of digits in a repeating decimal pattern. It's like when your friend keeps telling the same joke over and over again. So, if you see 0.333... the period of the underlined digits is 1 because it just keeps repeating that "3" forever. It's like a never-ending story, but with numbers.
What is repeating but not terminating decimal example?
A repeating but not terminating decimal is one in which, a finite number of places after the decimal point is followed by a finite string of digits which goes on repeating forever.For example, 1/3 = 0.3333... and the 3s go on and on.or211/700 = 0.30142857142857... where the repetition does not start straight off, and it is a 6-digit string that repeats.
What is the greatest 3 digit decimal less than 1?
It depends on what you mean by three digit decimal. If you mean three digits after the decimal, then it's 0.999. However, if you mean three digits in the number, then it's 0.99.
