Q2 of 54 Page 12

Without performing division, state whether the following rational numbers will have a terminating decimal form or non-terminating, repeating decimal form.


⇒ 29 and 343 are co-prime.


Now, We have to write the denominator 343 in the form of 2n5m where, n and m are the non-negative numbers.



343 = 7×7×7 = 73


∴ denominator is not of the form 2n5m where, n = 0 and m = 0


Thus, is Non-terminating and repeating decimal


Thus, is Non-terminating decimal.
