Which decimal is not equal to a terminating decimal?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: (0.\overline{12})
Step 1: In (0.\overline{12}), the block (12) repeats and the decimal does not end. Step 2: The other decimals have only zeros after some point, so they are equal to terminating decimals. Step 3: Distinguish trailing zeros from repeating non-zero digits.
