Match each decimal expansion criterion with the prime factors of denominator q (in simplest form p/q):
A1-A, 2-B, 3-C
B1-B, 2-A, 3-C
C1-C, 2-B, 3-A
D1-A, 2-C, 3-B
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. 1-A, 2-B, 3-C
Terminating denominators have only 2 and 5. Non-terminating have other primes. √2 irrationality uses contradiction.
