Question:

How do you turn a fraction into a recurring decimal?

Author: Alana Ray



Answer:

To turn a fraction into a recurring decimal multiply the denominator so it has 9's in it, then multiply the nuetortor by the same number. e.g. 32/666 x 1.5 = 48/999, and because the numerator needs to have the same number of digits as the denominator, a 0 is before 48 so it becomes 048/999 which gives the recurring decimal 0.048 (where a dot is over the 0 and 8)
