Without actually performing the long division, state whether state whether the following rational numbers will have a terminating decimal expansion or a non-terminating repeating decimal expansion.
Solution
The given number is \[\frac{23}{8}\] Here, \[8 = 2^3\] and 2 is not a factor of 23.
Now,
So, the given number has a terminating decimal expansion.
