if the decimal form for a unit fraction is a repeating decimal, is it possible for a multiple of that fraction to have a decimal form that is not a repeating decimal? use examples to explain

Well, the problem is that multiplying a repeating decimal by another repeating decimal will ultimately turn into a more complecated repeating decimal. I may be wrong, but a unit fraction times any unit fraction will make a decimal that is more complex, if not repeating.
