Answer:

Terminating decimal.

Explanation:

We need to find, if a fraction converts into a decimal that eventually stops what do we call it.

If a fraction converts into a decimal that eventually stops is called terminating decimals.

For example : 0.1, 2.45, 3.4657 etc.

If a fraction converts into a decimal that is repeating and do not stops is called non-terminating recurring decimals.

For example : 0.333..., 2.3454545... etc.

If a fraction converts into a decimal that is not repeating and do not stops is called non-terminating, non-recurring decimals.

For example : 0.2345172..., 2.34093795... etc.

Therefore, required answer is terminating decimal.
