What is 1 4/18 as a decimal?

Answer

Fraction 1 4/18 as a decimal is
1.2

≈ 1.22 to hundredths

Repeating decimal: 4/18 = 2/9 · denominator 9 = 3 × 3 has the factor 3, not 2 or 5 · the bar marks the period 2 — it repeats forever

1 4/18: whole part, then 4 ÷ 18

Whole part 1 stays in front; divide the fraction part:

remainder×10= digit × 18 + new remainderdigit
4402 × 18 + 42

Remainder 4 is back after the 1st division → the digit 2 repeats forever: 0.2.

1 + 0.2 = 1.2
