What else can I help you with?
How can you predict whether a fraction will terminate?
if the denominators only prime factor is a 2 and 5 (if it has any) the decimal will terminate otherwise it wont.
What can you conclude about rational numbers that have terminating decimals?
Their denominators have prime factors of 2 or 5.
What are the properties of terminating decimal?
They are rational number which, in their simplest form have denominators whose only prime factors are 2 or 5.
How do we determine whether the decimal representation of a quotient of two integers with the divisor not equal to zero will terminate or repeat?
It the divisor has any prime factor other than 2 or 5 [prime factors of 10], then the quotient will repeat. Otherwise it will terminate.
Is there a pattern to terminating fractions?
Yes, there is a pattern to terminating fractions. A fraction will terminate if its denominator, when fully simplified, has no prime factors other than 2 and 5. This is because the decimal representation of such fractions can be expressed in a base that matches the prime factors of 10 (the base of our decimal system). For example, fractions like 1/2, 3/5, and 7/20 terminate, while fractions like 1/3 or 2/7 do not.

When investigating the prime factors of 2 10 50 and 250 when would fractions terminate or when would they be recurring?
When investigating the prime factors of any number, you would not encounter any fractions.
What should you do To find LCD by prime numbers you should?
To find the least common denominator (LCD) using prime factorization, start by breaking down each denominator into its prime factors. Then, identify the unique prime factors across all denominators, taking the highest power of each prime factor. Multiply these together to get the LCD. This method ensures that the LCD is the smallest number that can be evenly divided by all the original denominators.

Does every prime number terminate or repeat?
Every prime number terminates.
Is the lcd of two tational expressions is the product of the denominators true?
When the denominators are relatively prime, that is, they have a GCF of 1.
The LCD for the fractions 13 34532 and 89 is?
The LCD is the multiple of the highest power of each prime factors of all denominators, 448,916(22x13x89x97=4x13x89x97=448916).
Fractions with unlike denominators and no common factors to have common denominators?
Multiply them by each other.
The LCD for the fractions 13 34 532 and 89 is?
The LCD is the LCM of all the denominators. The LCM of 13, 34, 532, and 89 is 10,463,908, which is the multiple of the highest power of prime factors from all of the given denominators (22 x 7 x 13 x 17 x 19 x 89 = 10463908). Prime factors of the denominators: 13=13; 34=2 x 17; 532 = 22 x 7 x 19; 89 = 89
How do you factor all numerators and denominators?
Numerators and denominators are just numbers; I hope you're not asking us to factor every number. There are many different methods. I prefer to find the prime factorization; that leads to all the other factors. Some people like to use a factor tree to help visualize the prime factorization.
