If a dot is placed above each of the digits in the decimal 0.0123456789 to indicate a recurring decimal can you express this as a fraction detailing all your working?
Let n = 0.0123456789 recurring 1010n = 123456789.0123456789 recurring 1010n - n = 123456789 9999999999n = 123456789 n = 123456789/9999999999 = 0.0123456789 recurring Therefore the recurring decimal 0.0123456789 expressed as a fraction is 123456789/9999999999. Check it out on your calculator.
Is 0.25 a example of integer?
NO, it is a decimal that can be represented as the fraction 1/4 but can never be written as n integer.
How can you write any nonzero whole number as a fraction?
No, you cannot write any irrational number as a fraction.
0.74 recurring into a fraction?
Let the recurring decimal be represented by 'n' Then 100n - n = 99n 100 x 0.7474764.... = 74.747474.... Then subtract the original decimal figure. 74.747474..... - 0.747474.....= 74.0000 = 99n Therefore n = 74/99
Is there a way to tell if a decimal is terminating or repeating?
Think of the division problem as a fraction. Simplify the fraction to its simplest form. For example, simplify 7/14 to 1/2. If the only factors of the denominator are 1, 2, and 5, then it will terminate. If the denominator has any other factors, it will repeat. For example, n/16 will always terminate for any integer n. But n/15 will never terminate for any non-zero integer n if the fraction is in its simplest form. Another method is to do the division. If you are dividing a/b (where a and b are both integers), then if it is going to terminate, it will terminate within b-1 decimal places. In other words, the repeating portion will never be longer than b-1 digits.

A (n) blank is a combination of a whole number with a fraction or decimal
Is the fraction 7 over 6 a terminating decimal or a repeating decimal?
It is a recurring decimal. You only get a terminating decimal if, in the lowest form, the denominaor of the fraction is a factor of 10 or a power of 10. That is to say, only if the denominator is of the form 2m5n where m and n are non-negative integers.
How do you put decimal to fraction?
If decimal number has n digits after the decimal point then the numerator of the fraction is the decimal number without the decimal point and the denominator is 1 followed by n zeros. That is the fractional representation of the decimal number. You may need to simplify. For example, 27.356 : there are three digits after the decimal point so n = 3. Therefore the fraction is 27356/1000 which can be simplified to 6839/250. Or 0.00076 : there are 5 digits after the decimal point so n = 5. Therefore the fraction is 76/100000 which can be simplified to 19/25000.
What decimal fraction of 13?
decimal fraction of 13 = 130/10 The de nomi nator should be i n the power of 10.
What is a fraction equivalent to one whole?
Any fraction of the form n/n, where n is a non-zero integer.
What is the fraction equivalent of 3 sevenths?
Any fraction of the form (3*n)/(7*n) where n is a non-zero integer is an equivalent fraction.
What fraction is more than two thirds?
any fraction with the form (n)/(n+1) as long as n>2
Can all terminating decimals be written as fractions Justify your answer?
Yes. Supposing the decimal terminates after n digits following the decimal point. Then consider the fraction whose numerator is the integer formed from the decimal by removing the decimal point. The denominator is 10n or 1 followed by n 0s. This fraction is equivalent to the terminating decimal.
What would this word be blank n blank n blank blank n?
I suppose it will always be unknown.
How do you determined the decimal from the fraction?
A decimal fraction is preceded by a period. A common fraction shows a numerator above the fraction line and the denominator below the fraction line, which represents a division statement.In other words, a fraction says "I represent n parts of a whole divided into d parts, where n is the numerator and d is the denominator." To convert a fraction to a decimal, divide the numerator (the number above the line) by the denominator (the number below the line).Example: to convert 1/3 to a decimal, divide 1 by 3. The answer will 0.3333 etc.
What is 14.6 as a fraction.?
-1.46 is a fraction. It is a fraction in decimal form rather than in the form of a ratio. However, that does not stop it being a fraction. Its rational equivalent is -146/100 which can be simplified. But simplification means that you lose information about the precision of the fraction.
How do you figure out the equivalent fraction of two fifths?
It is a fraction of the form (2*n)/(5*n) where n is any non-zero integer.
