Answer 2

Answer:

Terminates

Step-by-step explanation:

first the signs don't matter, just remember to put it back at the end

try dividing it:

3 / 12 = 0 with 30 tenths left over

30 / 12 = 2 with 60 hundreths left over

60 / 12 = 5 with 0 thousandths left over

no more remainders so it terminates
