Hint:
Numbers with a fixed or finite number of digits following the decimal point are known as terminating decimals and numbers with infinite decimal places are known as non-terminating decimals.
The correct answer is: non-terminating decimal expansion.
Let x = p/q be a rational number such that the prime factorisation of q is in form 2m5n, where m and n are non-negative integers, then x will have a terminating decimal expansion.
a)
x = 
In the given rational number, the value of q is 175. The factorisation of 175 is given as
Final Answer:
As the factorisation of 175 is not in the form of 2m5n, will have non-terminating decimal expansion.
