Terminating Decimal

by ssowat Sun Oct 02, 2011 1:31 pm

Any decimal that has only a finite number of nonzero digits is a terminating decimal. For example, 36, 0.72, and 3.005 are terminating decimals.

If a, b, c, d and e are non-negative integers and p = 2a3b and q = 2c3d5e, is p/q a terminating decimal?


(1) a > c
(2) b > d
