You do a long division, adding decimal digits until you get a remainder of zero (terminating decimal) or a repeating pattern of decimal digits.

A number is divisible by another when the remainder of the division is zero.
You do a long division, adding decimal digits until you get a remainder of zero (terminating decimal) or a repeating pattern of decimal digits.

When the remainder is zero the answer is a whole number. Put that number over 1 for an improper fraction.
Division by zero is not possible in arithmetic.
The concept of divisibility (division without remainder) makes sense only for integers, not for fractions. Any non-zero fraction goes into another fraction.
-9 over anything but zero is a fraction. Division by zero is undefined.

a repeating decimal
You undertake a long division. Any fraction is a rational number and so its decimal representation must be terminating or recurring. A terminating decimal will mean that the long division reaches a point when the remainder is zero. A recurring decimal sequence is equivalent to the long division going through a cycle of remainders.
A fraction such that the divisor (denominator) is zero is undefined. Such a division is expressed as x/0 where x is the dividend (numerator). In ordinary arithmetic, the expression has no meaning so division by zero is undefined.
