use long division convert 7/11 to a decimal

Answer 1

To convert 7/11 to a decimal, we can use long division. Here are the steps:

1) Write 7 as the dividend and 11 as the divisor.
2) Divide the first digit of the dividend (7) by the divisor (11). The result is 0. Remainder is 7.
3) Bring down the next digit of the dividend (0).
4) Divide 70 (the new dividend) by the divisor (11). The result is 6. Remainder is 4.
5) Bring down the next digit of the dividend (0).
6) Divide 40 (the new dividend) by the divisor (11). The result is 3. Remainder is 7.
7) Continue bringing down zeros and repeating steps 4 and 6 until either the remainder becomes 0 or you achieve desired accuracy.

After performing long division, we see that 7/11 is equal to the decimal 0.636363...(repeating).
