What is 1 10/6 as a decimal?

Answer

Fraction 1 10/6 as a decimal is
2.6

≈ 2.67 to hundredths

Repeating decimal: 4/6 = 2/3 · denominator 3 has the factor 3, not 2 or 5 · the bar marks the period 6 — it repeats forever

1 10/6: whole part, then 10 ÷ 6

10 = 1 × 6 + 4: whole part 1 + 1 = 2, then divide the remainder 4

remainder×10= digit × 6 + new remainderdigit
4406 × 6 + 46

Remainder 4 is back after the 1st division → the digit 6 repeats forever: 0.6.

2 + 0.6 = 2.6
