When 2 over 8 is a decimal is the decimal repeating or terminating?
Mrspinkpower
2/8 can be reduced to 1/4, which you should know to be .25 in decimal form.
Because the decimal "terminates" after the hundredths place, it is a terminating decimal.
An example of a repeating decimal would be 1/3.
This would come out to be .333333... (etc.)
Most calculators will display something like 2/3 as .6666667 placing the 7 on their last available digit displayer as a means of rounding the repeating decimal.

What is non terminating and repeating decimal?
A non-terminating decimal is a decimal that does not terminate, and goes on forever, and a repeating decimal is a number that continues on forever with a repeated pattern
What is a example of a non-terminating and non-repeating decimal that is an irrational number?
Square root of 2...
How are fractions are related to repeating decimals and terminating decimals?
If the denominator of the fraction has any prime factor other than 2 or 5, then it has a decimal representation with a repeating sequence of digits. If the denominator is a product of any number of 2s or 5s then it can be represented as a terminating decimal.
Does adding two repeating decimals equal a repeating decimal?
certainly not Not necessarily. 1/3 = 0.333... 1/6 = 0.166... 1/3 + 1/6 = 1/2 = 0.5, a terminating decimal.
What is 13 over 22 as a terminating decimal?
13/22 cannot be expressed as a terminating decimal because the divisor has a factor other that 2 or 5.
How Does 1 over 2 to 100th power have a repeating or terminating decimal?
It has a terminating decimal.
Is square root of 2 terminating or repeating decimal?
Neither; it is a non-repeating, non-terminating decimal - it is an irrational value.
How do you cover a negative fraction into a terminating decimal?
A negative fraction need not be a terminating decimal. For example, -2/3 = -0.66... (repeating).
How does 1 over 3 to 100th power have a repeating or terminating decimal representation?
It is repeating. Any fraction in simplest terms which has ANY prime factor other than 2 or 5 in its denominator will be a repeating fraction.
What are the 3 types of rational numbers?
If you convert them into decimal form you can say there are terminating decimals, there are the integers, and there are repeating decimals. EX: 2.4 is a terminating decimal. 2.44444444... is a repeating decimal. 2 is an integer. all are rational numbers.
What is non terminating and repeating decimal?
A non-terminating decimal is a decimal that does not terminate, and goes on forever, and a repeating decimal is a number that continues on forever with a repeated pattern
How are terminating decimals and repeating decimal reflected in fractions?
If a fraction, in its simplest form has a denominator whose only prime factors are 2 or 5, then the fraction is terminating. If the denominator has any other prime factor then the decimal is repeating.
What is a example of a non-terminating and non-repeating decimal that is an irrational number?
Square root of 2...
What is 2 over 11 written as a repeating decimal?
2 over 11 written as a repeating decimal = 0.18181818...

What can you predict whether a quotient will be a terminating decimal or repeating decimal?
If the denominator of the fraction, when written in its simplest form, has any prime factor other than 2 or 5 then it will be a repeating decimal fraction otherwise it will terminate.
