edit the repeating and non-repeating part of the decimal
The decimal representation of the fraction \( \frac{31}{40} \) is \( 0.775 \). Since this is a terminating decimal, there are no repeating parts.
We can denote the decimal as follows:
- Non-repeating part: \( 0.775 \)
- Repeating part: None
Since there is no part that repeats, the decimal can simply be expressed as \( 0.775 \).

7/30
To convert the fraction \( \frac{7}{30} \) into a decimal, you can divide the numerator (7) by the denominator (30):
\[ 7 \div 30 = 0.2333\ldots \]
This gives us a repeating decimal of \( 0.2333\ldots \), which can also be expressed as \( 0.2\overline{3} \) to indicate that the digit 3 repeats indefinitely.
- Non-repeating part: \( 0.2 \)
- Repeating part: \( 3 \) (denoted as \( \overline{3} \))
So, \( \frac{7}{30} \) as a decimal is \( 0.2\overline{3} \).
