Is two thirds a terminating decimal?
No.
What type of fraction is 0.45?
A terminating decimal so a rational fraction.
Comparing fractions without using an lcd?
It is easy: just convert to decimal fractions.
How do you common denominators for 3.5 and 1.4?
If those are both denominators, multiply their fractions by 10/10 to get rid of the decimal points. The LCD of 35 and 14 is 70. Convert them to equivalent fractions with a denominator of 70.
What is the relationship between fractions and decimals?
they are both ways to define a ratio. also you can use tem both to find a percent. a difference is that a decimal doesnt use aa numerator or denomenator and a decimal uses a single value. :) hope this helped

What is the only fraction that must be represented by a non terminating decimal?
There are infinitely many fractions which must be represented by non-terminating decimals, not just one.
What fractions are repeating or terminating decimal?
All rational fractions.
Is 3.245245245 rational?
Yes, it can be represented as a terminating decimal.
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.
How fractions are related to repeating decimals and terminating decimals?
Fractions are related to repeating decimals in the sense that a fraction can be represented as a repeating decimal if the denominator has prime factors other than 2 or 5. For example, 1/3 can be represented as 0.3333..., with the 3s repeating infinitely. Terminating decimals, on the other hand, are fractions that have denominators which are powers of 10. For example, 1/4 can be represented as 0.25, which terminates after two decimal places.
What is a terminating decimal that is not an integer?
0.5 is a terminating decimal and, since it is equal to a half, it is not an integer. A terminating decimal that is not an integer is a rational fraction. However, not all rational fractions are terminating decimals (eg 1/3 = 0.333...).0.1251.2512.5etc.
Is 44.4 a terminating decimal?
Yes, as represented in the question, it is.
Can a fraction be written as a non-terminating decimal?
No, not all fractions can be written as a non-terminating decimal. For instance, 1/3 has infinitely many 3's in the decimal places.
How do you use non terminating decimal in a sentence?
The rational fraction, one third, can be represented as a non terminating decimal, with the digit 3 repeating for ever.
What can rational numbers be expressed as?
fractions or decimals
Is 0.16 repeating irrational?
No, no repeating decimal is irrational. All repeating decimals can be converted to fractions. They are, however, non-terminating.
