6th grade Q1

Non-terminating decimals are decimals that keep going and don’t stop. There are two kinds:

Repeating decimals:

These decimals have a pattern of digits that repeats indefinitely. After a certain point in the decimal sequence, the same group of numbers continues to appear over and over again.

For example:

• $\mathrm{0.666...}$ has the number 6 that repeats without end
• $\mathrm{63.575757...}$ has the sequence 57 that keeps repeating
• $\mathrm{0.123123...}$ has the sequence 123 that keeps repeating

Non-repeating decimals:

These decimals do not have any repeating patterns. They go on forever, with no sequence of digits that repeats.

For example:

• $\mathrm{3.14159...}$
• $\mathrm{1.41421...}$
