Vedclass · Answer

(C) First,simplify the fraction $\frac{42}{35}$ by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor,which is $7$.$\frac{42 \div 7}{35 \div 7} = \frac{6}{5}$.Now,convert the fraction to a decimal by making the denominator a power of $10$:$\frac{6}{5} = \frac{6 	imes 2}{5 	imes 2} = \frac{12}{10} = 1.2$.Since the decimal expansion $1.2$ ends after a finite number of digits,it is a terminating decimal expansion.

The decimal form of $\frac{42}{35}$ is $\ldots \ldots \ldots \ldots$
