To convert fractions to repeating decimals, we divide the numerator by the denominator. If the division doesn’t end (i.e., there’s a remainder that repeats), we get a repeating decimal. We write repeating parts with a bar over them.
Let’s go one by one:
1.
2/11
2 ÷ 11 = 0.181818... → The “18” repeats →
0.\overline{18}
2.
5/6
5 ÷ 6 = 0.8333... → The “3” repeats →
0.8\overline{3}
3.
4/9
4 ÷ 9 = 0.444... → The “4” repeats →
0.\overline{4}
4.
15/18
First simplify: 15 ÷ 3 = 5, 18 ÷ 3 = 6 → 5/6
We already did 5/6 →
0.8\overline{3}
5.
2/3
2 ÷ 3 = 0.666... → The “6” repeats →
0.\overline{6}
6.
1/6
1 ÷ 6 = 0.1666... → The “6” repeats →
0.1\overline{6}
7.
6/22
Simplify: divide numerator and denominator by 2 → 3/11
3 ÷ 11 = 0.272727... → “27” repeats →
0.\overline{27}
8.
13/15
13 ÷ 15 = 0.8666... → The “6” repeats →
0.8\overline{6}
9.
5/11
5 ÷ 11 = 0.454545... → “45” repeats →
0.\overline{45}
10.
2/15
2 ÷ 15 = 0.1333... → The “3” repeats →
0.1\overline{3}
11.
2/6
Simplify: divide by 2 → 1/3
1 ÷ 3 = 0.333... →
0.\overline{3}
12.
2/99
2 ÷ 99 = 0.020202... → “02” repeats →
0.\overline{02}
All calculations checked. All answers are correct.
Final Answer:
2/11 = 0.\overline{18}
5/6 = 0.8\overline{3}
4/9 = 0.\overline{4}
15/18 = 0.8\overline{3}
2/3 = 0.\overline{6}
1/6 = 0.1\overline{6}
6/22 = 0.\overline{27}
13/15 = 0.8\overline{6}
5/11 = 0.\overline{45}
2/15 = 0.1\overline{3}
2/6 = 0.\overline{3}
2/99 = 0.\overline{02}
