Hi Allison, You have the essential facts about rational and irrational numbers correct with one small edit
The "repeated" aspect is that when a simple fraction is represented in decimal form it has a repeated pattern, for example $\large \frac{17}{45} \normalsize = 0.3777 \cdot \cdot \cdot$ where the digit 7 is repeated. You are to find an example of an irrational number which is less than -5. Can you give me any example of an irrational number? Penny | |||||||||||||||
