Answer:

No.

Explanation:

Unless you see a bar over one or more of the numbers (specifically 9 or 39), then it is not a repeating decimal, but rather a terminated decimal.

If there is a bar over the number, it means that specific set of numbers are repeated. Another way to tell if it is repeated is if there are dots at the end.
