Which of the following fractions is a terminating decimal?
5/8
A terminating decimal is a decimal that ends after a finite number of digits. When a fraction is converted to a decimal, it will be a terminating decimal if and only if the prime factorization of the denominator (in its simplest form) contains only the prime numbers 2 and 5. Therefore, the correct answer is 5/8.
