Chapter-1 PMD

This document discusses different types of decimal expansions including: 1) Terminating decimal expansions which are decimals that end, like rational numbers with denominators that are powers of 10. 2) Non-terminating recurring decimals which repeat the same block of digits forever, like fractions with denominators that are not powers of 10. 3) Non-terminating non-recurring decimals which continue with new digits forever without repeating, like irrational numbers such as π.
