Given the fraction:
1/6
Write as a decimal.
Solution:
In order to write the fraction as a decimal we simply needed to divide the numerator by the denominator. In our case, we will be dividing 1 by 6.
= 1/6
= 0.1666…
Since we have a repeating decimal, we can either equate it with a repeating word enclosed with a parenthesis, a dash line or an ellipsis. In our case we will use the ellipsis.
