Answer by rapaljer(4671)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The number 17.2353617 is clearly a REAL number. It is also either a RATIONAL or an IRRATIONAL number. If the number is considered to be a TERMINATING decimal (that is, the number ends as it is given with 617), then this is a RATIONAL number. However, if this number does not end with 617, but rather, it continues with no particular pattern, then this is an IRRATIONAL number.
