Answer:
the decimal expansion of irrational numbers are also defined as non terminating and non repeating.If you do the decimal expansion of c/d it will be 3.142857142857142857...
the expansion will be endless
thus decimal expansion of c/d is non terminating and non repeating therefore it is an irrational number.
