What is 5 10/15 as a decimal?
Answer
Fraction 5 10/15 as a decimal is
5.6
≈ 5.67 to hundredths
Repeating decimal: 10/15 = 2/3 · denominator 3 has the factor 3, not 2 or 5 · the bar marks the period 6 — it repeats forever
5 10/15: whole part, then 10 ÷ 15
Whole part 5 stays in front; divide the fraction part:
| remainder | ×10 | = digit × 15 + new remainder | digit |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10 | 100 | 6 × 15 + 10 | 6 |
Remainder 10 is back after the 1st division → the digit 6 repeats forever: 0.6.
5 + 0.6 = 5.6
