Q. Assertion (A):

\frac{29}{9261}

will have a non-terminating, non-repeating decimal expansion.
Reason (R): Let

a = \frac{p}{q}

be a rational number such that

p

and

q

are co-prime and the prime factorisation of

q

is of the form

2^{n} \times 5^{m}

, where

n

and

m

are non-negative integers. Then

a

has a decimal expansion, which is non-terminating.

Q. Let

x = \frac{p}{q}

be a rational number, such that the prime factorisation of q is not of the form

Q. In a rational number of the form

\frac{p}{q}
