Default Repeater Question

Hello fellow scanners. I'am looking for some input on a question. My question is when there are 2 or more frequencies assigned how do you know if one of them is a repeater frequency. Case in point below.

Amsterdam Fire Department

453.3875 (203.5 PL) Amsterdam Fire Repeater
458.3875 (203.5 PL) Amsterdam Fire Input

So only the repeater frequency needs to be monitored and you will still hear all of the action.

State Police Troop G Zone 3 Princetown

154.680 (167.9 PL) Car-To-Base
155.445 (167.9 PL) Base-To-Car

Now with the state police having 2 frequencies you will need to monitor both frequencies in order to hear all of the conversation, however with the Amsterdam Fire Department you only need to monitor the repeater frequency of 453.3875 (203.5 PL) and you will hear both ends of the conversation mobiles-to-base and base-to-mobiles. So my question is when 2 or more frequencies are used how do you know if one of them is a repeater.

Thank you.
