In the next several games, the pitcher threw a total of 384 pitches and used a fastball 240 times. What decimal should Juanita use to update her report? Juanita should use the decimal to update her report. How do you know that the answer is a terminating decimal?

0.625

It has 3 digits (finite) after the decimal point.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Total number of pitches = 384

Total number of fasfballs = 240

To make an update :

Ratio of the number of fastballs and total number of pitches

240 : 384

240/384

= 0.625

The result is a terminating decimal as it has a known number of digits after the decimal point. In the solution above, 0.625 has 3 digits after the decimal point and it is thus a terminating decimal.
