Dear student
 
For this we have to check first denominat128 = 2^7
 
As denominator is in the form of 2^m  * 5^n
Where m = 7 and n = 0
hence this is terminating decimals

Dear student
Here, the factors of the denominator 128 are are 5^0 × 2^7 which is in the form 2ⁿ 5^m .
159 * 5^7 /(2*5)^7
12421875/10000000
1.2421875
Hope this helps 
Good Luck

First, simplify a factor to p/q form, where p & q এই mutual primes.
Now, factorise the denominator. 
If we get only 1, 2 and 5 as the factors of the denominator, then the fraction is terminating.
 
Here, 159/128's denominator 128 gives 2^7.
As there is only 2 's in the factorization of denominator, the fraction is terminating.

denominator is the form of  2 raise to m multiplied by 5 raise to n so it is terminating
