It's rational because it contains a repeating digit pattern, 743 (first option).

In particular, if

x = -6.743743…,

then

1000x = -6,743.743743… .

Subtracting, we can eliminate the trailing end and solve for x exactly:

1000x - x = -6,743.743743… - (-6.743743…)

999x = -6,737

x = -6,737/999

Note: I will be using the information in your attachment to answer the question.
Add the minutes to the initial time: 7:00 + 10 minutes + 7 minutes + 5 minutes = 7:22
He will be ready to board the bus at 7:22.
Subtract this time from the time the bus is schedule to pick him up: 7:40 - 7:22 = 18
Max will have 18 minutes before the bus picks him up.
