<span> First, reduce the fraction to lowest terms, e.g. 8/6 = 4/3.
Look at the denominator. Split it into its prime factors. If its prime
factors only consist of 2's and 5's, then it will be terminating.
Examples:
16 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2, so terminating
25 = 5 x 5, so terminating
2000 = 2 x 1000 = 2 x (2 x 5) x (2 x 5) x (2 x 5), so terminating
12 = 2 x 3, so repeating (has prime factor 3, which is not 2 or 5)
13 = 13, so repeating (has prime factor 13, which is not 2 or 5) Hope this helps!!

Answer:
x = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the figures are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is
= 
( cross- multiply )
12(x - 1) = 96 ( divide both sides by 12 )
x - 1 - 8 ( add 1 to both sides )
x = 9
Answer:
<h2>
23 cars</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
total number of cars: x
the total number of axles: 46
and the number of axles installed per car: 2
2 axles in each car, then total instaled axles: 2•x
2•x = 46
x = 46÷2
x = 23
