Question

Without actual division, state where the rational number 523/225 is a terminating decimal
expansion or non- terminating decimal expansion.

Answer 1

Answer:

523/225 is a non-terminating decimal

Step-by-step explanation:

225=   15^2

      =(3^2)(5^2)

since the prime factorisation of the denominator is not of the form (2^n)(5^m) 523/225 is a non terminating decimal.
