Can someone please explain this math problem to me?

"Every fraction (rational number) has a corresponding decimal form that either terminates or repeats. For example,5/16 = 0.3125 (the decimal form terminates),and 4/11= 0.363636 . . . (the decimal form repeats). Investigate a number of fractions to determine which ones terminate and which ones repeat.(Hint: You can focus on the denominator; study the prime factorizations of several denominators

Saw a spider in Eastern Pennsylvania I've never seen before... Any suggestions on what it is?

It was much larger then i'm use to in this area but still small. Bigger then 50 cent piece but smaller then a CD. It's butt was crazy hard, brown, and had bumps... it resembled a pine cone. Its upper body(like torso, head, and mouth) was black and you could see his things that it uses like hands to feed itself clear as day.

Any suggestions on what it was?

Where does all of the electricity go?

I work in a papermill, and we have a turbine generator. The generator was down for maintenance. When we brought the generator back online, I couldn't help but think where is it going. The country was not experiencing any blackouts everyone had electricity for the week it was down. So we come back up and are making money from selling electricty that the country was fine without. It doesn't make any sense to me. I hope my question is clear enough.
