Question

After how many decimal places will 7/120 terminate pls give method

Answer 1

= 7 / 120

= 7 / 2³ × 5 × 3

As 3 being in denominator it makes the fraction non-terminating

(Under the Fundamental property that denominator should be only of 2ᵃ

and  5ᵇ to produce a terminating decimal)


And So, the decimal expansion/placing is not possible and it goes on

like this 0.0583333333333333......

☺ Hope this Helps ☺
