Changing decimals to fractions?

Changing decimals to fractions?
We all learnt about changing numbers into different forms.
Decimals <-> Percentages <-> Fractions
We can change all decimals to percentages and vice versa (because it is just merely a shift of the decimal point)
We can also change all fractions to decimals (we divide the numerator by the denominator, and we can change any fractions to decimals)
Problem now:
Is it true that we can change any decimal to a fraction?
Or can you find any decimals, so special that we are unable to change into a fraction?

pi cannot be ended and contains no pattern-no accurate fraction
e is (1/infinity+1)^infinity---since infinity is not a number ,,,e values can only be estimated

if infinity can not be calculated
how can we estimate e????

we all agree that infinity is a big number,
so we use big numbers to replace infinity
