Are decimals rational?

Some are, some aren't.If the portion after the decimal point:terminates (eg 0.125);does not terminate, but repeats one or more digits (eg 0.333..., 0.181818...)does not terminate, but has one or more digits followed by one or more further digits that repeat (eg 0.16666..., 0.258373737...)then the decimal is rational.otherwise, if the decimal does not terminate and does not repeat any digits (eg π = 3.1415726..., √2 = 1.41421...)then the decimal is irrational (not rational).


What is a recurring decimal?

A recurring decimal is a number which is written in decimal notation and in which, after a finite number of digits, a string of digits repeats for ever more. The repeating string need not start straight after the decimal point. For example, 5/26 = 0.1923076923076... with the string 923076 (but not the 1 at its start) repeating for ever.

Is 0.121122111222 a repeating decimal?

I'm just guessing that it is. That question is on my math homework and the definition in the back of my math book says: A decimal in which one or more digits repeat infinitely and I put yes. Because they repeat.
