MCQ
Without actually performing the long division, state whether the following rational number will have a terminating decimal expansion or non $-$ terminating decimal expansion $\frac{7}{210}$ :
  • A
    Terminating decimal expansion
  • Non $-$ terminating decimal expansion
  • C
    Cannot be determined
  • D
    None

Answer

Correct option: B.
Non $-$ terminating decimal expansion
Simplify it by dividing nominator and denominator both by $7$ we get $\frac{1}{30}$
Factorize the denominator we get $30 = 2 \times 3 \times 5$
Denominator has $3$ also in denominator
So denominator is not in form of $2^n \times 5^n$
