Yes, the number \( \frac{2}{9} \) is rational. A rational number is defined as any number that can be expressed as a fraction \( \frac{a}{b} \), where \( a \) and \( b \) are integers and \( b \) is not zero.
When you convert \( \frac{2}{9} \) to a decimal, it becomes \( 0.2222\ldots \), which can be expressed as \( 0.\overline{2} \) to indicate that the digit "2" repeats indefinitely. Therefore, \( \frac{2}{9} \) is both a rational number and has a repeating decimal representation.

Answer
what about 0.36

The number \( 0.36 \) is not a repeating decimal; it is a terminating decimal. It can be expressed as a fraction:
\[
0.36 = \frac{36}{100} = \frac{9}{25}
\]
Since it can be expressed as a fraction of two integers (where the denominator is not zero), \( 0.36 \) is also classified as a rational number. However, unlike \( \frac{2}{9} \), it does not have repeating digits; instead, it terminates after two decimal places.

The designation "V961" does not refer to a standard numerical value and appears to be a label or code rather than a number. As such, it cannot be classified as either rational or irrational, nor can it be expressed as a repeating decimal, since it does not represent a quantity or a real number.
For a number to be rational, it must be expressed in the form of a fraction \( \frac{a}{b} \) (where \( a \) and \( b \) are integers and \( b \neq 0 \)), and for it to have a repeating decimal, it must be a specific type of rational number.
If you meant something different by "V961," please clarify, and I'll be happy to help!

Answer
0.36?
Answered by
GPT-4o mini
The number \( 0.36 \) is a rational number because it can be expressed as a fraction of two integers. Specifically, it can be written as:
\[
0.36 = \frac{36}{100} = \frac{9}{25}
\]
Since \( 0.36 \) has a finite number of decimal places (it terminates after two decimal digits), it does not have a repeating decimal.
In summary:
- **Rational**: Yes, \( 0.36 \) is a rational number.
- **Repeating Decimal**: No, \( 0.36 \) does not have a repeating decimal; it is a terminating decimal.
\[
0.36 = \frac{36}{100} = \frac{9}{25}
\]
Since \( 0.36 \) has a finite number of decimal places (it terminates after two decimal digits), it does not have a repeating decimal.
In summary:
- **Rational**: Yes, \( 0.36 \) is a rational number.
- **Repeating Decimal**: No, \( 0.36 \) does not have a repeating decimal; it is a terminating decimal.
