Best Answer

A repeated decimal is a decimal representation of a number in which, following a finite string of digits, the decimal digits settles into a string which repeats itself again and again - forever.

For example, 111.11/77 = 1.44298701298701...

The repeating pattern 298701 appears after the first three digits of the decimal representation.

In a repeating decimal, sometimes one digit repeats and sometimes more than one digit repeats.
