Terminating and Repeating Decimals Fractions in simplest form that have denominators of 2, 4, 8, 16, and 32 produce terminating decimals. Fractions with denominators of 6, 12, 18,and 24 produce repeating decimals. What causes the difference?

Terminating and Repeating Decimals Fractions in simplest form that have denominators of 2, 4, 8, 16, and 32 produce terminating decimals. Fractions with denominators of 6, 12, 18,and 24 produce repeating decimals. What causes the difference? The first set can be factored into primes of 2’s. The second set can be factor into primes of 2’s and 3’s. The factor of 3 produces the repeating decimal.
