rational numbers will have a terminating decimal expansion or a non-

terminating decimal expansion.

(i)

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Q= 241/4000

Firstly, take out the factors of denominator by Prime Factorization method and then see that whether there only 2 and 5 as factor or some other number.

If the factors are only 2 or 5 then the whole fraction must be having a terminating decimal expansion otherwise not.
