Question

They want to know if it converts to a terminating or repeating decimal

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

If the denominator of the fraction has only 2s or 5s in its prime factorization, it is a terminating decimal.

Since 25 = 5², 11/25 is terminating.

Since 9 = 3², 4/9 is repeating.

Since 12 = 2² * 3, 5/12 is repeating.

Since 8 = 2³, 7/8 is terminating.

Answer 2

Answer:

$\frac{11}{25} = 0.44$ (this is a terminating decimal since it doesn't repeat forever)

$\frac{4}{9} = 0.44444...$ (this is a repeating decimal since it repeats forever)

$\frac{5}{12} = 0.41666...$ (repeating decimal)

$\frac{7}{8} = 0.875$ (terminating decimal)

Hope this helps :)
