    Question

    A.

    a rational number

    B.

    an irrational number

    C.

    a whole number

    D.

    an integer

    Correct option is B

    Given:

    Number = 3.13113111311113…

    Concept used:
    A number is rational if its decimal expansion is either terminating or repeating (recurring).
    If it is non-terminating and non-repeating, it is irrational.

    Solution:
    Here, the digits after the decimal are:
    13, 113, 1113, 11113, …

    The number of 1’s before 3 keeps increasing, so the pattern never repeats.
    Hence, the decimal is non-terminating and non-repeating.

    Correct answer is (b) an irrational number.
