The Louisiana Territory from Napoleon; half a billion, 3 cents an acre
Hello there!
terminal: 60/120
Repeating: 56/72 21/22 11/121
Remember: Terminating decimals end, repeating decimals don't (and go on forever.)
To find which are which, divide each fraction out.
56/72: 56 divided by 72 = 0.77777777777... (going on forever, making this repeating)
21/22: 21 divided by 22 = 0.95454545454.... (going on forever, making this repeating)
11/121: 11 divided by 121 = 0.0909090909 (going on forever, making this repeating)
60/120: 60 divided by 120 = 0.5 (ending at that, making it terminal)
So this means that only one of them, 60/120, is terminal and the rest are repeating. I hope this helps and have a great rest of your day! :)
Like other nations born in anti-colonial revolutions, the United States faced the challenge of building a sound economy, preserving national independence, and creating a stable political system which provided a legitimate place for opposition. In 1790, it was not at all obvious that the Union would long survive.
