Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

An example of one fraction that does NOT terminate is 2/3.

2/3 = 0.666666666666666 ....  That's the easy way to tackle the problem. Pick out the ones that don't terminate.

5/7 is the other one. It does not terminate either. It has 6 digits in a block that keeps on repeating itself forever.

5/7 = .571428 571428 which goes on forever.

So the two that do terminate are

3/2 which = 1.5

3/4 which = 0.75
