A number that cannot be expressed as a ratio of two integers or as a repeating or terminating decimal?
It could be what is known as an "irrational number", which is a kind of real number. Alternatively, and at a rather advanced level, it could be a number which is not even a real number.
Is a terminating decimal irrational?
An irrational number is a number that has no definite end and a terminating number is a number that has a definite end. So this means that a decimal that is terminating cannot be irrational.
What is one third of 850?
One third of 850 is equal to 283.333... (repeating). To calculate this, you would divide 850 by 3, which equals 283.333... The decimal representation of this fraction is a recurring decimal, indicating that it cannot be expressed as a finite decimal number.
Why does pi continue infinitely?
Because it has been proven to be an irrational number. And an irrational number cannot have a terminating or recurring decimal representation.
Is the statement A terminating decimal cannot be expressed as a repeating decimal false?
Yes. 5.0 (a terminating decimal) can be expressed as 4.9999... (a repeating decimal) That may be hard to believe but it is true, as proved by Georg Cantor.
Who of the following cannot be written as a fraction an integer a terminating decimal a repeating decimal and a non-terminating non repeating decimal?
The latter which would be an irrational number that cannot be expressed as a fraction.
How do you determine whether you can write a given decimal as a fraction?
If the decimal is terminating or repeating then it can be written as a fraction. Decimal representations which are non-terminating and non-repeating cannot be expressed as a fraction.
Is 10.3 repeating a terminating decimal?
No, the question contradicts itself. If it is repeating then it cannot be terminating and if it is terminating then it cannot be repeating!
Is 10.3 a terminating decimal?
No, the question contradicts itself. If it is repeating then it cannot be terminating and if it is terminating then it cannot be repeating!
Is 10.3 repeated a terminating decimal?
No, the question contradicts itself. If it is repeating then it cannot be terminating and if it is terminating then it cannot be repeating!
What are the irrational numbers?
Irrational numbers are numbers that cannot be expressed as a ratio of two integers or as a repeating or terminating decimal.
Can a terminating decimal or a repeating decimal be an irrational number?
No, it cannot.
Why pi irrational?
pi cannot be expressed as a terminating or non-repeating decimal. Consequently, it is irrational. The pure mathematical proof is not simple.

A repeating decimal is an irrational number?
Actually, a repeating decimal is not necessarily an irrational number. A repeating decimal is a decimal number that has a repeating pattern of digits after the decimal point. While some repeating decimals can be irrational, such as 0.1010010001..., others can be rational, like 0.3333... which is equal to 1/3. Irrational numbers are numbers that cannot be expressed as a simple fraction, and they have non-repeating, non-terminating decimal representations.
Is 5.56776436283 an irrational number?
Yes, 5.56776436283 is an irrational number. An irrational number cannot be expressed as a fraction of two integers and has a non-repeating, non-terminating decimal expansion. Since the decimal representation provided appears to be a non-repeating decimal, it indicates that the number is irrational.
