Answer

Fraction 7 1/9 as a decimal is
7.1

≈ 7.11 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

7 1/9: whole part, then 1 ÷ 9

1101 × 9 + 11

Remainder 1 is back after the 1st division → the digit 1 repeats forever: 0.1.

7 + 0.1 = 7.1
