Decimal expansions: terminating and recurringQuiz - Solve & Score

  1. Q1. After how many decimal places does 3/8 terminate?

    • A.9
    • B.4
    • C.3
    • D.5

    Answer: C. 3

    Given 3, 8, asked for how many decimal places does 3/8 terminate?. By a rational p/q in lowest terms terminates iff q = 2^m x 5^n, otherwise it is non-terminating recurring. a rational p/q in lowest terms terminates iff q = 2^m x 5^n, otherwise it is non-terminating recurring → hence the required value = 3. reduce the given fraction and inspect the denominator's prime factorisation. Hence option C) 3. Others fail: option A) '9' is incorrect: Wrong: a common multi-step slip gives this; option B) '4' fails since Wrong: a step was skipped or HCF/LCM swapped.

  2. Q2. The decimal expansion of 3/16 terminates after how many places?

    • A.6
