Question

1. Fill in the blanks:
a. A terminating decimal has a
number of digits after the decimal point
b. While expressing a fraction in the decimal form, if the division process does not end we get a
c. Non-terminating decimals in which a digit or a block of digits repeats itself in the decimal part
are called non-terminating
d. Non-terminating decimals in which the digits in decimal part do not repeat in a pattern are called
non-terminating
2. Mention whether the following are terminating decimals or repeating decimals:​

Answer 1

Answer:

While expressing a fraction in the decimal form, when we perform division we get some remainder. If the division process does not end i.e. we do not get the remainder equal to zero; then such decimal is known as non-terminating decimal.

Note:

In some cases, a digit or a block of digits repeats itself in the decimal part. Such decimals are called non-terminating repeating decimals or pure recurring decimals. These decimal numbers are represented by putting a bar on the repeated part.

Example of Non-terminating Decimal:

(a) 2.666... is a non-terminating repeating decimal and can be expressed as 2.6.

(b) 0.141414 ... is a non-terminating repeating decimal and can be expressed as 0.14.
