Expressing Rational Numbers as Repeating Decimals (Part 2 )

The video tutorial explains how whole numbers and rational numbers can be expressed as repeating decimals. It begins by demonstrating that whole numbers can be written as fractions and then converted to decimals with repeating zeros. The tutorial then explores how rational numbers, such as 2/3, 4/9, and 3/11, can have repeating decimal forms with varying numbers of repeating digits. The key takeaway is that any rational number will eventually have a repeating decimal expansion.
