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.


⇒ 23 and 23 52 are co-prime.


Now, we have to write the denominator 22 57 75 in the form of 2n5m where, n and m are the non-negative numbers.


23 52


∴ denominator is in the form 2n5m where, n = 3 and m = 2


Thus, is terminating decimal
