A rational, terminating decimal is a decimal that ends after a certain number of digits, and can also be expressed as a fraction where the denominator is a power of 10.
Let's analyze the options:
- **5**: This is an integer and can be expressed as 5.0, which is a terminating decimal.
- **11**: This is also an integer and can be written as 11.0, which is a terminating decimal.
- **0.363636...**: This is a repeating decimal (0.36 repeating) and is not a terminating decimal.
- **√64**: The square root of 64 is 8, which can be expressed as 8.0, a terminating decimal.
In summary, the numbers that are rational and terminating decimals among the options are **5**, **11**, and **√64** (which is 8).
If you need just one number, then any of those three (5, 11, or 8) qualifies as a rational, terminating decimal.
