If x is a rational number, then the decimal expansion of x will either end or repeat.
As an illustration, 213 7 = 30.428571428571 ... , which we might represent as 30. (428157).
The decimal expansion of an irrational number will neither terminate nor recur. For instance, π = 3.141592653589793238462643383279502884...
