Which decimal is rational?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 0.\overline{45}

The governing rule is that a rational number has a decimal expansion that terminates or eventually repeats a fixed block of digits. In option C, the block 45 repeats forever, so 0.\overline{45} = 45/99 = 5/11, which is a ratio of integers and therefore rational. The other displayed decimals are described as non-terminating and non-repeating. Such decimal expansions cannot be written as p/q and are irrational. The important test is not merely whether the decimal continues indefinitely: some endless decimals are rational when they repeat, while non-repeating endless decimals are irrational. Therefore option C is the only valid answer.
