A decimal in which at least one of the digits after the decimal point is non-repeated and some digits are repeated is called a mixed recurring decimal.
A few solved problems are explained step-by-step with detailed explanation.
Worked-out example on mixed recurring decimal:
(a) 5/18
= 0.2777….
For, 5/18 when 5 is divided by 18, the quotient is 0.2777... and the digit 7 is repeating.
For instance, 0.277777777777......... can also be written as 0.27
Alternatively, we can write it by placing a dot above the repeating digit 7 in the quotient.
Therefore, 5/18 is a mixed recurring decimal.
(b) 5/6
= 0.833……..
For, 5/6 when 5 is divided by 6, the quotient is 0.8333... and the digit 3 is repeating.
For instance, 0.833......... can also be written as 0.83
Alternatively, we can write it by placing a dot above the repeating digit 3 in the quotient.
Therefore, 5/6 is a mixed recurring decimal.
(c) 111/900
