Explanation:

A decimal number can be written as the fraction of integers ( i.e. rational number ) if it is terminating or recurring non terminating,

2.5 is terminating decimal,

⇒ it can be written as a fraction of integers,

√14 = 3.7416573...... is not recurring non terminating decimal,

⇒ it can not be written as a fraction of integers,

√16 = 4 is an integer,

an integer can always written as a fraction of integers,

-1.25 is terminating decimal,

⇒ it can be written as a fraction of integers,

5.333333... is a recurring non terminating decimal,

⇒ it can be written as a fraction of integers,

`\pi` = 3.14159265359.... is not recurring non terminating decimal,

⇒ it can not be written as a fraction of integers,

0.6 is terminating decimal,

⇒ it can be written as a fraction of integers
