Question
Without actual division, show that the following rational numbers is a non-terminating repeating decimal:$\frac{32}{147}$
✓
Answer
$\frac{32}{147}=\frac{32}{3\times7^2}$We know either $3$ or $7$ is not a factor of $32$, so it is in its simplest form.
Moreover, $(3 \times 7^2) \neq (2^m \times 5^n)$
Hence, the given rational is non-terminating repeating decimal.
