Work Step by Step

a) We can tell this because the denominator only has factors of two. b) We can tell this because the denominator has a factor of three. c) $ 7/8, 11/16, 13/32, 17/40, 9/20, 3/64$ In order to tell which denominators will have terminating decimals, use the rules of terminating decimals. (For instance, denominators of two will terminate while denominators of three will not.)
