terminating decimal

i looked this up for my math homework but couldnt find it so here ya go i had to figure it out myself a terminating decimal is a decimal without a end

person 1: what does terminating decimal mean ? i looked it up in the urban dictionary but didnt find it .

person 2: its a decimal without a end, For example, 1 / 4 can be expressed as a terminating decimal: It is 0.25. In contrast, 1 / 3 cannot be expressed as a terminating decimal, because it is a recurring decimal, one that goes on forever.

person 1: woah your a human calculator ! wow
