Answer 1

$\frac{6}{1250}$
simplifies to 0.0048
we see that after 0 there are 4 places of decimal.
Ans:It will terminate(stop) after 4 places of decimal.

Answer 2

Answer:

The number of places after which the decimal terminates will be 4.

We have to find:

The number of decimal places after which the decimal representation of 6/1250 will terminate.

Solution:

To determine the decimal representation of $\frac{6}{1250}$, let us divide 6 by 1250.

Hence, the decimal representation of the given expression = 0.0048

∴ No. of places after which the decimal will terminate is 4.

the division is shown in the figure attached.
