Answer:

To determine whether a decimal is rational or not, you need to know that...

Irrational numbers don't end and have no pattern whereas rational numbers are the complete opposite. Rational numbers end and have a repeating pattern.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here are examples of irrational numbers:

0.9384903204..... , π , √2
