Answer:

Enrique is correct. Repeating decimals are rational numbers because they can be written as fractions. The number is actually equivalent to 4/9. (I think)

Explanation:

Repeating decimals are rational numbers, and 4/10 is 0.4 where the 4 is not repeating, so the first answer would have to be correct.
