Solution :-
Concept to be used :- we have to check prime factors of denominators of given fraction .
- if Prime factor are 2, or 5 , or 2 and 5 both . Than the given fraction is a terminating decimal expansion .
- if prime factors are other than 2 or 5 , than the given fraction is a non - terminating decimal expansion .
checking all given options we get,
(a) 115/14
checking prime factors of denominator,
→ 14 = 2 * 7
since prime factors of denominator is 7 which is other than 2 or 5 , therefore, we can conclude that, the given fraction is a non - terminating decimal expansion .
(b) 197/200
checking prime factors of denominator,
→ 200 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 5 * 5
as we can see that, prime factors of denominator are 2 and 5 only, therefore, we can conclude that, the given fraction is a terminating decimal expansion .
(c) 321/15
→ 107/5
as we can see that, prime factors of denominator is 5 only, therefore, we can conclude that, the given fraction is a terminating decimal expansion .
(d) 46/2² * 3² * 5
→ 23/(2 * 3² * 5)
as we can see that, prime factors of denominator is 3 also, which is other than 2 and 5 , therefore, we can conclude that, the given fraction is a non - terminating decimal expansion .
Hence, both (b) and (c) are terminating decimal expansion .
