Question

From the following, the rational number whose decimal expansion is terminating is :

• A. $\frac{2}{15}$
• B. $\frac{11}{160}$
• C. $\frac{17}{60}$
• D. $\frac{6}{35}$

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

$\frac{11}{160}$

By converting the given options in decimal form, we get,

$\frac{2}{15}=.1333...\frac{11}{160}=.06875\frac{17}{60}=.28333...\frac{6}{35}=.171428571...$

By observing the options, we find that only one option is terminating decimal i.e. option B.

So, correct answer is option B.
