What is Rational number as a decimal?
It is either a terminating decimal or a repeating decimal.
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.
