0. 42 =
3/5 is correct or not
No..it is not
0.42 = 0.42 (100/100)= 42/100
then divide top and bottom by common divisors.
42/100 = 21/50

How to convert repeating decimal into a fraction
Let x represent the number to convert
(for example x = 3.14141414...)
then multiply both sides by 10^n where n is the number of repeating decimals.
( in our case n =2 , thus,
100x = 314.141414....)
then solve for x in the equation 10^n (x) -x = 10^n (your number) - your number
(so as in our example
100x -x = 311
99x =311
thus x = 311/99)

Who of the following cannot be written as a fraction an integer a terminating decimal a repeating decimal and a non-terminating non repeating decimal?
The latter which would be an irrational number that cannot be expressed as a fraction.
Can every rational fraction be written as a repeating decimal?
Any rational number is either a repeating decimal, or a terminating decimal.
Does the sum of a repeating decimal and a terminating decimal equal a terminating decimal?
No, the sum of a repeating decimal and a terminating decimal is never a terminating decimal.
Is the fraction 13 a terminating or repeating decimal?
It is a repeating decimal.
Is 0.875 a terminating or a repeating decimal?
0.875 is a terminating decimal and as a fraction it is 7/8
How do you determine whether you can write a given decimal as a fraction?
If the decimal is terminating or repeating then it can be written as a fraction. Decimal representations which are non-terminating and non-repeating cannot be expressed as a fraction.
Does 4 11 convert to a terminating or repeating decimal?
4/11 is a repeating decimal.
Who of the following cannot be written as a fraction an integer a terminating decimal a repeating decimal and a non-terminating non repeating decimal?
The latter which would be an irrational number that cannot be expressed as a fraction.
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).
Can every rational fraction be written as a repeating decimal?
Any rational number is either a repeating decimal, or a terminating decimal.
Does the sum of a repeating decimal and a terminating decimal equal a terminating decimal?
No, the sum of a repeating decimal and a terminating decimal is never a terminating decimal.
Is 0.66 a terminating or repeating decimal?
It is terminating - after two decimal digits.
How do you convert 0.2 a repeating decimal into a fraction?
0.2 a repeating decimal into a fraction = 2/9
What is a terminating fraction?
To sum this answer up you half to turn the fraction into a decimal and if it ends that is terminating but if it keeps going it is called a repeating decimal EXAMPLES Terminating- 5/10=.5 Repeating- 1/3=.3333 (bar notation over the 3)
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.
