It is: 6 and 3/8 = 6.375 as a decimal
3 over 5 as a decimal is .6.
3/6 = 1/2 = .5
5/6 = .83333333 (3 repeating)
That depends how the decimal is defined. If you have a fraction, and convert it to a decimal:* If the fraction, in simplest terms, only has the prime factors 2 and 5 in its denominator, the corresponding decimal number is terminating. This is related to the fact that 2 and 5 are the factors of 10 (the base of our decimal system). For example, a denominator of 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 32, 125, 625, 20, etc., will be terminating.* If there is any other prime factor in the denominator, the corresponding decimal number will repeat periodically. This is the case with denominators such as 3, 6, 7, 9, 11, 12, 13, etc.
No, it is an infinitely recurring decimal.
Yes because 3/6 = 1/2 = 0.5
If it stops there then it is a terminating decimal.
0.166666... with an infinite number of 6s. This is a non-terminating decimal.
It is a non-terminating decimal. It would be properly written as 0.23456 with a bar over the 5 and 6 ONLY.
0.8571
3 over 6 as a decimal is 0.5.
certainly not Not necessarily. 1/3 = 0.333... 1/6 = 0.166... 1/3 + 1/6 = 1/2 = 0.5, a terminating decimal.
It is: 6 and 3/8 = 6.375 as a decimal
3.166666 repeating
3.5 is.
Well honey, let me break it down for you. The fraction 7/6 is an improper fraction, meaning the numerator is greater than the denominator. When you divide 7 by 6, you get 1 with a remainder of 1. So, it's not a terminating decimal, nor is it a repeating decimal. It's just a sassy little fraction that doesn't conform to your decimal rules.
