Final answer:

The fraction 11/3 is a terminating decimal.


Step-by-step explanation:

A terminating decimal is a decimal representation of a rational number that ends, or terminates, after a finite number of digits. In order to determine if a fraction is a terminating decimal, we need to check if its denominator is divisible only by the prime factors 2 and 5.

Out of the given options, 11/3 is the only fraction that is a terminating decimal. 11/3 can be written as 3.67, which means it terminates after 2 digits.
