Question

Which of the following is NOT a terminating decimal?

A. 4.4
B. 4.44
C. 4.0444
D.

Answer 1

`\text{D. }44.\overline{4}`

Explanation:

*The person who asked this question clarified answer choice D should be
`\text{D. }44.\overline{4}`.

Define a terminating decimal by a decimal that has a finite (or fixed) number of digits. Answer choices A, B, and C all have a finite number of digits, thus they are terminating decimals. The overline is answer choice D is using to represent that digit (4) is repeating and therefore there are an infinite number of digits in the decimal. Thus,
`\boxed{\text{D. }44.\overline{4}}` is not a terminating decimal.
