Answer:

Terminating

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Find the denominator of 25/8 in its lowest form.

The greatest common factor (GCF) of 25 and 8 is 1. Convert 25/8 to its simplest form by dividing the numerator and denominator by its GCF:

25 ÷ 1

8 ÷ 1

=

25

8

Thus, the denominator of 25/8 in its lowest form is 8.

2) Find the prime factors of the answer in Step 1.

The prime factors of 8 are all the prime numbers that you multiply together to get 8. The prime factors of 8 are:

2 x 2 x 2

3) Determine if 25/8 is terminating

A fraction is a terminating decimal if the prime factors of the denominator of the fraction in its lowest form only contain 2s and/or 5s or no prime factors at all. This is the case here, which means that our answer is as follows:

25/8

= terminating
