Look at several examples of rational numbers in the form p/q(q isn't equal to 0) where p and q are integres with no common factors other than 1 and having terminating decimal representations(expansions). Can you guess what property q must satisfy?
Answers
Answer:
Rational Numbers :Any number which can be represented in the form of p/q where q is greater than 0 is called a rational number.
Irrational Numbers : The real numbers which cannot be expressed in the form of p/q, where p and q are integers and q ≠ 0 are known as irrational numbers.
If we observe some examples of Rational numbers in the form of p/q where q is greater than 0, having no factors in common rather than 1.
For example,
•1/2 , q = 2^ 1
•4/5, q = 5^1
•7/8, q = 2^3
We conclude that,
The property that q must satisfy in order that the rational numbers in the from p/q, where p and q are integers with no common factor other than 1, have maintaining decimal representation is prime factorization of q has only powers of 2 or power of 5 or both .
