What is 1 2/12 as a decimal?
Answer
Fraction 1 2/12 as a decimal is
1.16
≈ 1.17 to hundredths
Repeating decimal: 2/12 = 1/6 · denominator 6 = 2 × 3 has the factor 3, not 2 or 5 · the bar marks the period 6 — it repeats forever
1 2/12: whole part, then 2 ÷ 12
Whole part 1 stays in front; divide the fraction part:
| remainder | ×10 | = digit × 12 + new remainder | digit |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 | 20 | 1 × 12 + 8 | 1 |
| 8 | 80 | 6 × 12 + 8 | 6 |
Remainder 8 repeats from the 2nd digit on → 0.16.
1 + 0.16 = 1.16
