Use the standard division algorithm to determine the decimal representation of
To find: The decimal representation of
Answer to Problem 1P
The decimal representation of
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The fraction is
Calculation:
For the fraction
By long division method,
In this division the remainder 1 repeats hence the decimal representation does not terminates it repeats with the string of digits
Conclusion:
Thus, the decimal representation of
