Is 2.4 a terminating, recurring or an irrational decimal?
Terminating decimals have a limited number of digits after the decimal point.
Example:
845.62 = 845 62/100
Recurring decimals have one or more repeating numbers after the decimal point which continue on infinitely.
Example:
1320.3333 = 1320 3333/10000 = 333/1000 = 33/100 = 1/3 (rounded)
Irrational decimals go on forever and never form a repeating pattern. This type of decimal cannot be expressed as a fraction.
Example: 0.447981294.....
