1. Without actually performing the long division, state whether the following numbers will have a terminating decimal expansion or a non-terminating repeating decimal expansion:(I)15/1600 (II)29/343 (III)23/2 to the power 3 multiply by 5 to the power 2 (IV)129/2 to the power 2 multiply by 5 to the power 7 multiply by 7 to the power 5 (V)35/50 (VI)77/210
please help
Answers
Answer:
do prime factorization and if the digits have only the powers of 2 and 5 or 2 only or 5 only then it is terminating
Hey mate,
___________
___________
Here is your solution,
___________
●(i)
q = 320 = =
Here, denominator is of the form , where m = 1 and n = 6.
It means rational number has a terminating decimal expansion.
(ii)
q = 343 =
Here, denominator is not of the form , where m and n are non-negative integers.
It means rational number has non-terminating repeating decimal expansion.
(iii)
q =
Here, denominator is of the form , where m = 2 and n = 3 are non-negative integers.
It means rational number has terminating decimal expansion.
(iv)
q =
Here, denominator is not of the form , where m and n are non-negative integers.
It means rational number has non-terminating repeating decimal expansion.
(v)
Here, denominator is of the form , where m = 1 and n = 0.
It means rational number has terminating decimal expansion.
(vi)
q = 10 =
Here, denominator is of the form , where m = 1 and n = 1.
It means rational number has terminating decimal expansion.
(x)
Here, denominator is not of the form , where m and n are non-negative integers.
It means rational number has non-terminating repeating decimal expansion.
