A repeating decimal is sometimes called a recurring decimal. The main idea is that at some point it must become periodic. That is to say, a certain part of the decimal must repeat, even though not all of it repeats. The parts that repeats is called the repetend.
One very important idea is the a real number has a repeating decimal representation if and only if it is rational.
When expressed as a decimal, a rational number will either be terminating (end with a finite number of digits) or repeating (have a repeating pattern of digits).
No, 125 is not a repeating decimal. A repeating decimal is a decimal number that has a repeating pattern of digits after the decimal point. In the case of 125, it is a whole number and does not have any decimal places or repeating patterns. It can be written as 125.0000, but it is still a non-repeating decimal.
A terminating decimal is a rational number. A non-terminating, repeating decimal is a rational number. A non-terminating, non-repeating decimal is an irrational number.
repeating decimal
Yes, a rational number can be a repeating decimal. A repeating decimal is a decimal in which one or more digits repeat infinitely. For example, 1/3 is a rational number that can be written as the repeating decimal 0.333...

A terminating decimal.
Is 0.88 repeating a rational number
A repeating decimal is a rational number. Its value is(the repeating set of digits)/(as many 9s as there are digits above).
35 is a repeating number

No. A rational number is any terminating numeral. A repeating decimal is irrational.
