6/15 is terminating or non terminating? If its terminating why the denominator is not in the form of 2n×5n???
I'm so confused..

(viii) 6/15
divide nominator and denominator both by 3 we get 2/5
Denominator is in form of 5^m so it is terminating.
(ix) 35/50 divide denominator and nominator both by 5 we get 7/10
Factorize the denominator we get
10=2 x 5
So denominator is in form of 2^n x5^m so it is terminating
(x) 77/210.
simplify it by dividing nominator and denominator both by 7 we get 11/30
Factorize the denominator we get
30=2 x 3 x 5
Denominator has 3 also in denominator so denominator is not in form of 2^n x 5^n
Hence it is none terminating.

Answer:
6/15 is terminating in nature.
Step-by-step explanation:
What is a terminating fraction?
- A fraction which ends with a fixed digit is called a terminating fraction. For eg, 5/2 is a terminating fraction as it gives 2.5 on calculation.
- When 6 is divided by 15 we get 0.4.
- Therefore, 6/15 is a terminating fraction.
- By multiplying 6/15 by 3/3, the denominator can be written the form of 2ⁿ5^m.
Thus, 6/15 is terminating in nature.
