Answer 1

When changing fractions to decimals and the division ends evenly, it is called a terminating decimal.

Step-by-step explanation:

When changing fractions to decimals and the division ends evenly, it is called a terminating decimal. A terminating decimal is a decimal representation of a fraction where the division/division process ends without repeating or continuing indefinitely. For example, when converting the fraction 1/4 to a decimal, the division 1 ÷ 4 results in the decimal 0.25, which terminates.
