    What is 2 7/12 as a decimal?

    Answer

    Fraction 2 7/12 as a decimal is
    2.583

    ≈ 2.58 to hundredths

    Repeating decimal: denominator 12 = 2 × 2 × 3 has the factor 3, not 2 or 5 · the bar marks the period 3 — it repeats forever

    2 7/12: whole part, then 7 ÷ 12

    Whole part 2 stays in front; divide the fraction part:

    remainder×10= digit × 12 + new remainderdigit
    7705 × 12 + 105
    101008 × 12 + 48
    4403 × 12 + 43

    Remainder 4 repeats from the 3rd digit on → 0.583.

    2 + 0.583 = 2.583
