Respuesta :
7 over 8 can be seen as
[tex] \frac{7}{8} [/tex]
or 7÷8.
This is what this question will look like on a calculator.
[tex]7 \div 8 = 0.875[/tex]
As you can see, you will only get 0.875 so your answer will be terminating.
Terminating = Answer Stops
ex.) 0.784 or 0.25
Repeating = Answer Repeats
ex.) 0.5555... or 1.33...

Answer:
Answer is 0.875, terminates
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\frac{7}{8}[/tex]
Divide the numbers using long division
7 is less than 8. so we add decimal at the top and then add 0 at the bottom and start dividing.
0.875

8 70
64
------------------- Subtract
60
56
---------------------- subtract
40
