Answer:

Correct option isA

Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion.

In a fraction, if the denominator is of the form 2

n ×5 m then the fraction is always terminating.

In this case, 34.12345= 1000003412345

Denominator is 100000=10

5=2 5×5 5

Denominator is of the form 2 n×5 m

So, it is terminating and reason is the correct explanation to assertion.

Option A

Given : Assertion: denominator of 12.145. when expressed in the form of p/q, q=0 is of the form 2^m×5^n, where m and n are non-negative integers. Reason : 12.145 is a terminating decimal fraction

To Find : Comment on Assertion and Reason

Solution:

All real numbers which can be expressed in p/q form where p and q are integers and q ≠ 0 are rational numbers

Rational numbers in which numerator and denominators are co prime and denominators can be written in the form  2^m.5^n  where m and n are non negative integers are  Terminating decimals

and others are non terminating recurring decimals

Assertion: denominator of 12.145. when expressed in the form of p/q, q=0 is of the form 2^m×5^n, where m and n are non-negative integers.

12.145

= 12145/1000

= 2429/200

= 2429/2³ * 5²

Hence  Assertion is True

Reason : 12.145 is a terminating decimal fraction  

TRUE

Correct option is  A

Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion
