4.583

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

|---|---|---|---|
| 7 | 70 | 5 × 12 + 10 | 5 |
| 10 | 100 | 8 × 12 + 4 | 8 |
| 4 | 40 | 3 × 12 + 4 | 3 |
Remainder 4 repeats from the 3rd digit on → 0.583.
4 + 0.583 = 4.583
