What is 3 1/9 as a decimal?
Answer
Fraction 3 1/9 as a decimal is
3.1
≈ 3.11 to hundredths
Repeating decimal: denominator 9 = 3 × 3 has the factor 3, not 2 or 5 · the bar marks the period 1 — it repeats forever
3 1/9: whole part, then 1 ÷ 9
Whole part 3 stays in front; divide the fraction part:
| remainder | ×10 | = digit × 9 + new remainder | digit |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 10 | 1 × 9 + 1 | 1 |
Remainder 1 is back after the 1st division → the digit 1 repeats forever: 0.1.
3 + 0.1 = 3.1
