What is 1 2/15 as a decimal?
Answer
Fraction 1 2/15 as a decimal is
1.13
≈ 1.13 to hundredths
Repeating decimal: denominator 15 = 3 × 5 has the factor 3, not 2 or 5 · the bar marks the period 3 — it repeats forever
1 2/15: whole part, then 2 ÷ 15
Whole part 1 stays in front; divide the fraction part:
| remainder | ×10 | = digit × 15 + new remainder | digit |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 | 20 | 1 × 15 + 5 | 1 |
| 5 | 50 | 3 × 15 + 5 | 3 |
Remainder 5 repeats from the 2nd digit on → 0.13.
1 + 0.13 = 1.13
