To one decimal place, 26 must lie between 5.1 and 5.2 because \(5.1^2 = 26.01\) and \(5.2^2 = 27.04\). Therefore, 26 lies between these squared values.

I apologize for the oversight. Let's determine the correct whole-number approximations for \( \sqrt{26} \).
To one decimal place, 26 must lie between **5.0 and 5.1** because:
- \(5.0^2 = 25.0\)
- \(5.1^2 = 26.01\)
Since \(26\) is greater than \(25\) and less than \(26.01\), it confirms the approximation. Thank you for your patience!

To two decimal places, 26 must lie between **5.09 and 5.10** because:
- \(5.09^2 = 25.9081\)
- \(5.10^2 = 26.01\)
Since \(26\) is greater than \(25.9081\) and less than \(26.01\), this confirms that \( \sqrt{26} \) lies between these two values.

If we were to continue this process, it would **eventually stop** because \(26\) is a **rational** number.
Rational numbers can be expressed as the quotient of two integers, and their decimal representations either terminate or repeat. Since \(26\) is a perfect square of \(5.099\), which can be approximated with a finite number of decimal places, the process of narrowing down the interval will eventually lead to an exact representation.

I apologize for any confusion, but actually, **26 is not an irrational number; it is a rational number**.
Rational numbers are those that can be expressed as a fraction of two integers. The number 26 can be expressed as \( \frac{26}{1} \), confirming that it is rational.
However, if we consider \( \sqrt{26} \), that value is indeed an **irrational number**. The process of narrowing down the interval around \( \sqrt{26} \) would indeed go on forever, as the decimal expression for \( \sqrt{26} \) does not terminate or repeat.
To clarify:
- **26** is rational.
- **\( \sqrt{26} \)** is irrational, and thus the decimal approximation process would go on forever.
So, if the question is about \( \sqrt{26} \), then yes, it would go on forever. Thank you for your understanding.
