Question

I need help please on this it is very hard for me

Answer 1

3/20 = 0.15 (Terminating)

5/11 = 0.45454 (Repeating)

2/15 = 0.13333 (Repeating)

7/8 = 0.875 (Terminating)

9/16 = 0.5625 (Terminating)

Explanation:

The definition of Terminate means to bring to an end. This would also apply to the decimals. To find whether a fraction is terminating or not, is to simply divide and you will get a decimal, unless it is mixed fraction. Terminating will bring an end, Ex: 1/2 ( 1 ÷ 2 ) which would equal = 0.5 This is an example of a terminating decimal. A repeating decimal is a decimal that never ends of its repetition, Ex: 0.13333333 (Continuous).

I hope this helps my grammar might bit a bad sorry.

Hope you get an A ^^

Have a great day

Answer 2

Below in bold.

Explanation:

3/20

We divide 3 by 20:-

3 / 20 = 0 so we divide 30 by 20 and proceed as below:

20)3.00 ( 0.15

20

100

100

......

The answer is 0.15 which is terminating.

5/11

If we divide as above we get 0.45454545....

The 45 keeps repeating

2/15

Dividing gives 0.133.........

Repeating

7/8 = 0.875

terminating.

9/16

= 0.5625

terminating.
