Step-by-step explanation:

a) 36/100= 0.36         (Terminating decimal)

Terminating decimal numbers

These decimal numbers have a finite number of digits after the decimal point. These types of decimal numbers are also known as exact decimal numbers. The number of digits after the decimal point of these numbers is countable.

b) 1/11 = 0.090909…….. (This is Non-terminating recurring decimal)

Non – terminating decimal numbers

As the name suggests, the digits after the decimal point of non – terminating decimals repeat endlessly. In other words, we can say that these decimal numbers have an infinite number of digits after the decimal point. These decimal numbers are further divided into recurring and non – recurring decimal numbers.

Recurring Decimal Numbers

These decimal numbers have an infinite number of digits after the decimal point, however, these digits are repeated at regular intervals.

Non -recurring decimal numbers

These are non -terminating, non -repeating decimal numbers. These decimal numbers have not only an infinite number of digits at their decimal places, but their decimal place digits do not follow a specific order.
