Answer:

The correct option is D.

Explanation:

A number is called a rational if it can be written in the form of p/q where p/q are integers and q≠0.

The terminating numbers are always a rational number.

From the given options it is clear that option option D represents a terminating number,


5.33333..=5.\bar{3}


5.33333..=5+(3)/(10-1)


5.33333..=5+(3)/(9)


5.33333..=5+(1)/(3)


5.33333..=(16)/(3)

The number 5.3333333... is a rational number.

Therefore the correct option is D.
