Is 5.55 repeating irrational

Answer:

No

Explanation:

In mathematics, the irrational numbers are all the real numbers which are not rational numbers. That is, irrational numbers cannot be expressed as the ratio of two integers. Since 5.55 repeating can be represented by a fraction then it is not irrational. It would be considered a rational number. I hope I've helped, if you have any questions or if you need further explanation please comment below.
