Question

Write the following in decimal form and say what kind of decimal expansion it has:
$4\frac{1}{8}$

Answer 1

The number is given as $4\frac{1}{8}$. It can be simplified as $\frac{33}{8}$.

After dividing, it becomes,

$\frac{33}{8}=4.125$

Since, the decimal terminates at a point, it is a terminating decimal expansion.
