Answer 1

Answer:

a)     1.4

b)     0.75

3/6  =>   0.5  (non terminating decimal)   A non-terminating, non-repeating decimal is a decimal number that continues endlessly, with no group of digits repeating endlessly. Decimals of this type cannot be represented as fractions, and as a result are irrational numbers. Hence 0.5 is a non-terminating, non-repeating decimal.

17/8 =     2.125

8/3 =>     2.666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666..........
