<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!!

pentagon [3]
You would first put 168 over 4 and simplify to get 42 over 1. Then you would divide 504 by 42 to get 12. You would have to drive 12 hours to get 504 miles.

1) Sally sprints 300 yards in a minute. Quadra runs 20% further than Sally in the same time.
Free_Kalibri [48]
1) answer = 360
explanation =
-> 10% of 300 = 300*10
-> 10% of 300 = 30
-> 20% = 10% x 2
-> 20% = 30 x 2
-> 20% = 60
-> 300 yards ( distance they ran ) + 60 yards ( how much more distance Quadra ran ) = 360 yards
2) answer = Newton spends 10 minutes or 1/6 hours reading
explanation =
-> 25% = 1/4
-> 40*4= 10
-> 1 hrs = 60 min
-> 10 min x 6 = 60 min
-> 1/6 hrs = 10 min
3) answer = 30 fish
explanation =
-> 40% = 12
-> 10% = 3
-> 40*4=10 and 12*4=3
-> 10% + 40% = 50% so 12 + 3 = 15
-> 50% = 15 and 100% = 15 x 2
-> 100% = 30
4) answer = 30
explanation =
-> 1/4 is equal to 25 %
-> add up all the prrcentages ( 25% + 10% + 15% = 50% )
-> she have 50% of tej chocolates Which were in the tin she bought away and kept 15 chocolates to herself
-> 50% = 1/2
-> 50% x 2 = 100%
-> 15 x 2 = 30
