             numbers will have a terminating decimal expansion or a non-terminating repeating decimal
             expansion:

\frac{13}{3125}=\frac{13}{5^{5}}

The denominator is of the form 2a x 5b where a = 0 and b = 5. Therefore the given rational number will have a terminating decimal expansion.
