2. What is irrational number? Give examples.
3. What is terminating decimal?
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
For example, 2.6 is rational because it can be expressed as a fraction 135. This is an example of a terminating decimal. Every terminating decimal has a finite number of digits, and all such numbers are rational. As another example, √2 = 1.414213…. is irrational because we can't write that as a fraction of integers.
Answer:
1.A rational number is a number that can be express as the ratio of two integers. A number that cannot be expressed that way is irrational. For example, one third in decimal form is 0.33333333333333 (the threes go on forever)
2.An irrational number is a type of real number which cannot be represented as a simple fraction. It cannot be expressed in the form of a ratio. If N is irrational, then N is not equal to p/q where p and q are integers and q is not equal to 0. Example: √2, √3, √5, √11, √21, π(Pi) are all irrational.
3.Terminating decimals: these have a finite number of digits after the decimal point. Recurring decimals: these have one or more repeating numbers or sequences of numbers after the decimal point, which continue infinitely. ... These numbers are called irrational numbers and cannot be expressed as a fraction.
