A nonterminating number does not end. An example is the fraction 1/3. When written as a decimal, it is a nonterminating number. Also pi is a nonterminating number. Some nonterminating numbers are repeating, some are nonrepeating. But they just don't end.

a terminating decimal is one that has an end like 1/2 is 0.5 nonterminating does not end like 1/3 is 0.33333333333333333333333333333333333333333... where there are an infinite number of 3s on the end. 1/4 is 0.25 so it is also terminating pi is a nonterminating number it is 3.14159265359... it also doesn't have a set pattern to go by so its not only a nonterminating decimal, but it is an irrational number. Hope that helps
Yes.
1/3 = 0.333333333...1/7 = 0.142857142857....pi = 3.1415926535...
4111 is an integer and so there is no sensible way to convert it into a repeating decimal.
Terminating numbers are decimal representations of rational numbers. Nonterminating numbers may or may not be rational numbers.
