Answer 1

Answer:

Decimal expansion of an irrational number is non-terminating and non-repeating is a correct statement .

Step-by-step explanation:

For rational numbers in the form of p/q where q ≠ 0, on dividing p/q, two main cases occur either the remainder becomes zero after a certain stage or never becomes zero and we get a repeating string of remainders.

A number is an irrational number if it has a non terminating and non-repeating decimal representation.

Among the given options option (D) Decimal expansion of an irrational number is non-terminating and non-repeating is correct.
