5 (dividend) : -14 (divisor)
Long division (check below)
With the same two numbers -14 and 5 we can write in a Long Division
5) -14
<u> - 2.8</u>
5) -14

40
So
2nd. Both are terminating ones for they have finite quantities of numbers. -2.8 and 0.3571428571, as we can see that these are rational numbers for they can be written as a/b, and b≠ 0.
