Answer 1

A rational terminating decimal is a fraction that, when expressed as a decimal, ends after a finite number of digits.

Among the options provided, we can analyze each one:

1. 5/11 - This results in a repeating decimal (0.454545...).
2. 1/3 - This also results in a repeating decimal (0.333...).
3. √39 - This is an irrational number and does not terminate.
4. √12 - This is also an irrational number and does not terminate.
5. 7/8 - This results in a terminating decimal (0.875).

The only option that is a rational terminating decimal is 7/8.
