Repeating and Terminating Decimals

Today, in math, we learned about repeating and terminating decimals.m repeating decimals are when there is a pattern the to division problem and the same number or pattern of numbers goes on forever. So it could be like this, 1.5555555555555555555555555, but instead of writing all of those numbers, you would just write a dash above the beginning number or pattern that repeats.  An terminating decimals is like this, 5.7785, it just stops.  On calculators though, repeating decimals would be like this, 1.55555555555555555555555556.  It would be a six to show that it goes on forever.
