Let's convert each of the given fractions to repeating decimals. We'll do this by performing long division or using known patterns for repeating decimals.

---

🔁 Key Concept:


A fraction will have a repeating decimal if the denominator (after simplifying) has prime factors other than 2 and 5. If it only has 2s and/or 5s, the decimal terminates.

We’ll simplify where needed and then divide.

✔ Step-by-step Solutions:



---

1. $\frac{2}{11}$

Divide $2 \div 11$:
- $11$ goes into $20$ → $1$, remainder $9$
- $11$ into $90$ → $8$, remainder $2$
- $11$ into $20$ → $1$, remainder $9$... repeats!

So:
$\frac{2}{11} = 0.\overline{18}$

---

2. $\frac{5}{6}$

Simplify? Already simplified.
$6 = 2 \times 3$, so it will repeat.

$5 \div 6 = 0.8333\ldots$

So:
$\frac{5}{6} = 0.8\overline{3}$

---

3. $\frac{4}{9}$

$4 \div 9 = 0.444\ldots$

So:
$\frac{4}{9} = 0.\overline{4}$

---

4. $\frac{15}{18}$

Simplify first:
$\frac{15}{18} = \frac{5}{6}$

From earlier:
$\frac{5}{6} = 0.8\overline{3}$

So:
$\frac{15}{18} = 0.8\overline{3}$

---

5. $\frac{2}{3}$

$2 \div 3 = 0.666\ldots$

So:
$\frac{2}{3} = 0.\overline{6}$

---

6. $\frac{1}{6}$

$1 \div 6 = 0.1666\ldots$

So:
$\frac{1}{6} = 0.1\overline{6}$

---

7. $\frac{6}{22}$

Simplify: $\frac{6}{22} = \frac{3}{11}$

Now $3 \div 11 = 0.272727\ldots$

So:
$\frac{6}{22} = 0.\overline{27}$

---

8. $\frac{13}{15}$

$15 = 3 \times 5$, so it will repeat.

$13 \div 15 = 0.8666\ldots$

So:
$\frac{13}{15} = 0.8\overline{6}$

---

9. $\frac{5}{11}$

$5 \div 11 = 0.454545\ldots$

So:
$\frac{5}{11} = 0.\overline{45}$

---

10. $\frac{2}{15}$

$15 = 3 \times 5$, so it repeats.

$2 \div 15 = 0.1333\ldots$

So:
$\frac{2}{15} = 0.1\overline{3}$

---

11. $\frac{2}{6}$

Simplify: $\frac{2}{6} = \frac{1}{3}$

$1 \div 3 = 0.333\ldots$

So:
$\frac{2}{6} = 0.\overline{3}$

---

12. $\frac{2}{99}$

$2 \div 99 = 0.020202\ldots$

So:
$\frac{2}{99} = 0.\overline{02}$

---

✔ Final Answers:



| Fraction | Repeating Decimal |
|--------|-------------------|
| $\frac{2}{11}$ | $0.\overline{18}$ |
| $\frac{5}{6}$ | $0.8\overline{3}$ |
| $\frac{4}{9}$ | $0.\overline{4}$ |
| $\frac{15}{18}$ | $0.8\overline{3}$ |
| $\frac{2}{3}$ | $0.\overline{6}$ |
| $\frac{1}{6}$ | $0.1\overline{6}$ |
| $\frac{6}{22}$ | $0.\overline{27}$ |
| $\frac{13}{15}$ | $0.8\overline{6}$ |
| $\frac{5}{11}$ | $0.\overline{45}$ |
| $\frac{2}{15}$ | $0.1\overline{3}$ |
| $\frac{2}{6}$ | $0.\overline{3}$ |
| $\frac{2}{99}$ | $0.\overline{02}$ |
