In mathematics, the IRRATIONAL NUMBER are all the real numbers which are not rational numbers, the latter being the numbers constructed from ratios of integers.
A non-terminating, non-repeating decimal is a decimal number that continues endlessly, with no group of digits repeating endlessly. Decimals of this type cannot be represented as fractions, and as a result are irrational numbers. Pi is a non-terminating, non-repeating decimal.
Irrational Numbers: Any real number that cannot be written in fraction form is an irrational number. These numbers include the non-terminating, non-repeating decimals (pi, 0.45445544455544445555..., 2, etc.). Any square root that is not a perfect root is an irrational number.
So the answer is 0.462 this is non terminating
