Question

Convert 1 over 8 to a decimal and tell whether it terminates or repeats.

0.125, a number that terminates
1.8, a number that terminates
1.8 with a repeating bar over 8., a number that repeats
0.875 with a repeating bar over 875., a number that repeats

Answer 1

0.125 is 1/8 in decimal form

Answer 2

0.125 a number that terminates.

Explanation:

1/8 is just 1 divided by 8 and that equals 0.125, and a terminating number means that the digits stop which they do. A repeating number doesn't terminate because the numbers repeat on forever.
