A fraction x/y can be expressed in x/10y if y has prime factors of 2 and 5
==> Hence this will become a terminating decimal
How?
Ok let for example x be 300 and y is 40
300/40
==> 300/4*10
==> 75/10
So:
it is 7.5 and hence 75/10 is a terminating fraction!
Thus if y has 2 and 5 as factors then only it becomes expressible in 10y form and hence becomes terminating.
Answer Option C
Hope it helps you!
