Answer:
therefore it is non terminating
Step-by-step explanation:
285= 3x5x5x11
120=2x2x2x3x5
on cancelling denomenator = 5x11
therefore it is not terminating because to be a terminating decimal.. it should be in the form of 2∧n x 5∧m

here is your answer friend
In the above attachment U have seen that
with 2 and 5 other number also present that is
3 .
So it is non - terminating decimal .
If we get either only 2m or 5n or both
2m × 5n then it will be become terminating
decimal .
U can check it by doing cancellation or division
U will get non - terminating decimal.
