how many digits are in repeating cycle of 17 over 27?

9 answers

To figure out the repeating cycle of the decimal representation of 17/27, we need to perform the long division:

0.629629629...

When we continue the long division, we see that the decimal 629 repeats indefinitely. Thus, the repeating cycle contains 3 digits, which are 629.
it says its wrong
Apologies for the mistake. Let me try again.

To find the repeating cycle of 17/27, we perform the long division:

0.629629629...

The repeating cycle in this case is 629, which consists of 3 digits.
629 is not the right answer
Apologies for the confusion. Let's try again.

To find the repeating cycle of 17/27, we can perform long division:

0.629629...

In this case, the repeating cycle is 629, which consists of 3 digits.
wait im dumb you were right the whole time my bad i apologize
No problem at all! It happens to everyone. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask.
which of the following rational numbers can be expressed as a repeating decimal: 7 over 8, 5 over 12, 17 over 25, or 31 over 40?
To determine which of the given rational numbers can be expressed as a repeating decimal, we need to find their decimal representations.

1) 7/8 = 0.875
2) 5/12 = 0.416666...
3) 17/25 = 0.68
4) 31/40 = 0.775

Out of the given options, only 5/12 (0.416666...) can be expressed as a repeating decimal since the decimal part repeats indefinitely.
