Answer:

C: Terminating and Rational

Explanation:

A whole number is a number with no decimal places so the answer is not A.

A natural number is a whole number which is equal to or greater than 0, and since 0.46 is not a whole number, the answer is not B either.

A terminating number is a number which does not go on forever, like 3.86. A rational number is a number which can be expressed as a fraction, and 0.46 can be expressed as 46/100. Thus 0.46 is both terminating and rational, making C the answer.
