You just need to find the prime factors of the denominators. If they have 2 and 5, they are terminating else non terminating repeating.
So, you'll find that in first two options, both the denominators can be split into prime factors containing two and five. So they are terminating. Only in the last option 8 cannot be prime factorised containing 2 and 5. So it is non terminating but repeating.
Plz mark as brainliest :D

harsh208: can you please show me one answer
chiefLucky: Okay
chiefLucky: Take first option. The demoninator is 50. If you factorised it, you'll get 2*5*5. Since it contains 2*5, therefore it's terminating decimal. It's that simple.
