What is 5 6/11 as a decimal?
Answer
Fraction 5 6/11 as a decimal is
5.54
≈ 5.55 to hundredths
Repeating decimal: denominator 11 has the factor 11, not 2 or 5 · the bar marks the period 54 — 2 digits repeat forever
5 6/11: whole part, then 6 ÷ 11
Whole part 5 stays in front; divide the fraction part:
| remainder | ×10 | = digit × 11 + new remainder | digit |
|---|---|---|---|
| 6 | 60 | 5 × 11 + 5 | 5 |
| 5 | 50 | 4 × 11 + 6 | 4 |
Remainder 6 is back after the 2nd division → the 2 digits 54 repeat: 0.54.
5 + 0.54 = 5.54
