What can you say about the prime factorization of the denominators of the following rational:
0.120120012000120000....


Given:

The given rational number is $0.120120012000120000$....


To do: 

Here, we have to determine the nature of the prime factorisation of the denominator of the given rational number when expressed in $\frac{p}{q}$ form.


Solution:

$0.120120012000120000$.... has a non-terminating decimal expansion. 

Therefore, the denominator of the given rational number has factors other than $2$ or $5$.
