Explanation:

We have been given an incomplete sentence. We are supposed to complete our given sentence.

Sentence:

The number 0.35 is a(n) __________ number because __________.

We know that 0.35 is a rational number as we can represent it as a fraction.

Since 0.35 has two digits after decimal, so we will multiply and divide 0.35 by 100 as:

`0.35* (100)/(100)=(3.5* 100)/(100)=(35)/(100)=(5*7)/(5*20)=(7)/(20)`.

Therefore, the correct word for 1st blank is 'rational' and correct expression for 2nd blank is 'it can be written as a fraction
`(7)/(20)`.
