Answer:

A. 0.333...

Explanation:

Any repeating decimal can be written as a ratio of two integers, hence is rational. 0.333... = 1/3

The last offering appears to be a non-repeating infinite-length decimal, hence is irrational.

Of course π is irrational, as is the square root of any integer that is not the square of an integer.
