MCQ
The decimal representation of a rational number is:
- Aalways terminating.
- ✓either terminating or repeating.
- Ceither terminating or non-repeating.
- Dneither terminating nor repeating.
✓
Answer
Correct option: B.
either terminating or repeating.
The numbers of the form $\frac{\text{p}}{\text{q}},$ where $p$ and $q$ are integers and $\text{q}\neq0,$ are known as rational numbers.
Decimal representation of a rational number is either terminating or a repeating decimal, since every decimal of this form can be expressed in the form $\frac{\text{p}}{\text{q}}.$
Hence, the correct opion is $(b)$.
