After reducing (\frac{84}{2^3\cdot 3\cdot 5^2\cdot 7}), after how many decimal places will its decimal expansion terminate?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: (2) places
Since (84=2^2\cdot 3\cdot 7), the reduced denominator is (2\cdot 5^2). The larger exponent is (2), so reduce first and then count places.
