A fraction is terminating when the fraction, in simplest terms, has a denominator whose only prime factors are 2 and 5. This is related to the fact that our decimal system is based on the number 10 = 2 x 5. Any other prime factor in the denominator - 3, 7, 11, etc. - will be recurring.

Decimals can be recurring. Decimals can be terminating. They can't be both.
Some non-terminating decimals are repeating decimals.
You will get a recurring decimal in which the recurring pattern will show up after the terminating decimal has come to an end.
Decimals can be "terminating" "recurring" or "other." A terminating decimal is one which is finite. Recurring and other decimals continue on forever. For instance 0.5 is a terminating decimal. 0.729 is a terminating decimal. 0.3333333... is not a terminating decimal. pi (3.1415926535....) is not a terminating decimal.
Rational numbers will become either a terminating decimal (if the denominator has prime factors of 2 and/or 5 only) or a decimal that recurs one or more digits (possibly after one or more digits that do not recur). Examples: 1/2 = 0.5 (terminates) 1/3 = 0.333.... (3 recurs) 1/6 = 0.1666.... (6 recurs after the initial non-recurring 1) 1/7 = 0.142857142857142857.... (142857 recurs)
The three types of decimal fractions are:terminating,repeating (or recurring) andnon-terminating and non-repeating,
Terminating. Non-terminating but recurring. Non-terminating and non-recurring.
Of course all the decimals have fractions except those with non-recurring and non-terminating decimals.

All terminating decimals can be written as fractions.
Some are and some are not.Decimal fractions which are neither terminating nor recurring represent irrational numbers.A fraction in the form of a ratio, in its simplest form, where either the numerator or the denominator is irrational (or both) are irrational.

All rational fractions.
Terminating means stops. If it stops, it's a terminating decimal. If it keeps on going, it's repeating or recurring.
