Terminating decimals are decimals that end, such as, 2.384. Non-terminating decimals that don't end, such as, 0.3333333333.......
A rational number is any number that can be expressed as the quotient or fraction p/q of two integers, p and q, with the denominator q not equal to zero. Terminating or repeating decimals are the result of this.
For terminating decimals, yes - the place value of the digit farthest to the right (furthest after the decimal point) is the denominator. Don't forget to simplify the fraction (if possible).
there are 3 types of decimals. Terminating Non Terminating and Reoccuring
A terminating decimal means a decimal with a definite end. For example 1/2 = .50. 3/4 = .75 3/8 = .375 The decimals that don't end or called non-terminating decimals.
If a fraction is a rational number then if the denominator goes into the numerator or into the numerator multiplied by a power of 10, then you will have a terminating decimal. Otherwise it will be a repeating decimal.

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.
The only prime factors are 2 and 5.
No. Rational numbers are either terminating decimals or non-terminating BUT recurrent decimals.
terminating decimals repeating decimals
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.

They are called terminating decimals.
Decimals can be recurring. Decimals can be terminating. They can't be both.
