Answer Text:
These are decimal fractions in which a digit or a group of digits repeat continuously without ending.
#1/3#= 0.333333
#5/11#= 0.454545454
We cannot write all the numbers, we therefore place a dot above a digit that is recurring. If more than one digit recurs in a pattern, we place a dot above the first and the last digit in the pattern.
