Here we will show you how to determine if 95/95 is a repeating decimal or a non-repeating decimal.
A repeating decimal is a decimal number that goes on forever. We want to know if the decimal number you get when you divide the fraction 95/95 (95 ÷ 95) is repeating or non-repeating.
Here are the steps to determine if 95/95 is a repeating decimal number:
1) Find the denominator of 95/95 in its lowest form.
The greatest common factor (GCF) of 95 and 95 is 95. Convert 95/95 to its simplest form by dividing the numerator and denominator by its GCF:
| = |
|
Thus, the denominator of 95/95 in its lowest form is 1.
2) Find the prime factors of the answer in Step 1.
The prime factors of 1 are all the prime numbers that you multiply together to get 1. The prime factors of 1 are:
none
3) Determine if 95/95 is repeating
A fraction is a repeating decimal if the prime factors of the denominator of the fraction in its lowest form do not only contain 2s and/or 5s or do not have any prime factors at all. This is not the case here, which means that our answer is as follows:
95/95
= non-repeating
