1/3 is rational.
.3333… is not. You can’t treat fractions the same as our base 10 number system. They don’t all have direct conversions. Hence, why you can have a perfect fraction of a third, but not a perfect 1/3 written out in base 10.

at least we finally found your problem: you don’t know what rational and irrational mean. the clue is in the name.

TBH the name is a bit misleading. Same for “real” numbers. And oh so much more so for “normal numbers”.

not really. i get it because we use rational to mean logical, but that’s not what it means here. yeah, real and normal are stupid names but rational numbers are numbers that can be represented as a ratio of two numbers. i think it’s pretty good.
