0.09

Practice makes perfect

We want to write the given fraction as a decimal number. 1/11To do so, recall that 1 11 means 1÷ 11. Therefore, we will divide the numerator by the denominator. Let's do it!

We can see that the pattern starts to repeat itself after a few steps. This means that the decimal is a repeating decimal. We can write it using bar notation. Remember, the bar goes over the decimal part that repeats itself. 0.090909... = 0.09 We found that 111 written as a decimal is 0.09.
