Answer: Yes, it is a terminating decimal.

Step-by-step explanation:

A terminating decimal is any decimal where it stops and does not go on forever (either randomly or in some pattern).

The terminating decimal 7.13 is read out as "7 and 13 hundredths". It converts to the mixed number
7 & (13)/(100) and that converts to the improper fraction
(713)/(100)
