Answer:

I hope this helps!!

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given that : numbers - 9 over 7, 5 over 3, 3 over 2, 6 over 4

To find : which are terminating decimal

Terminating decimals are those whose figures to the right of some place are zero or have an end.

Solution : we check one by one,

1) 9 over 7 = 9/7 = 1.285714285714285714.... -Non terminating

2) 5 over 3 = 5/3 = 1.666666666666666...... -Non terminating

3) 3 over 2 = 3/2 = 1.5 - Terminating

4) 6 over 4 = 6/4= 3/2 = 1.5 - Terminating

I'm sorry if this is wrong :(
