2/3 = .66 It is a repeating decimal.
When you multiply decimals, the decimal point is placed in the product.
If the two decimal numbers have x and y digits after the decimal points, then the product has (x + y) digits after the decimal point.
Because terminating or repeating decimals can be written as the quotient of two integers a/b, where b is not equal to zero.
All rational fractions - one integer divided by a non-zero integer - give rise to repeating or terminating decimals. If, for the fraction in its simplest form, the denominator can be expressed as a product of powers of only 2 and 5 then the decimal will terminate. If the denominator has any prime factor other than 2 or 5 the decimal will be recurring. All non-rational fractions will have infinite, non-recurring decimal representations.

5/8 is 0.625 and 2/3 is 0.66666.... (repeating decimal)
Yes it can - however, for calculation purposes, it is usually rounded to two decimal places.
3/8 = 0.375 is a terminating decimal. If you must have it in the form of a repeating decimal it is either 0.375000... or 0.374999... The second may look an unlikely answer but I can assure you that, mathematically, the two decimals are equal.
certainly not Not necessarily. 1/3 = 0.333... 1/6 = 0.166... 1/3 + 1/6 = 1/2 = 0.5, a terminating decimal.
If two decimal numbers have x and y digits after the decimal point respectively, then their product has (x + y) digits after the decimal point.
terminating decimals and non-terminating repeating decimals are considered rational numbers.pi is an example of an irrational number. this is the ratio of the circumference of a circle over the diameterthe value of pi is 3.1416....it is non terminating and non-repeating, therefore it is considered as an irrational nimbermakalagot jud kaayo kay dugay makuha ang answer. hahay. tawn pud. way klaro ani nga website oy. way gamit >:)
You cannot. They are two different types of decimals.
