Where the decimal comes from

There is no rewrite over 10, 100 or 1000 for 10/11: 11 has a prime factor other than 2 and 5, so no whole-number multiplier reaches a power of ten. Watch the long division to see what happens instead — the remainders start circling, and once a remainder comes back, the digits must too:

  1. 100 ÷ 11 = 9remainder 1
  2. 10 ÷ 11 = 0remainder 10— this remainder has come around before, so from here the digits repeat

Written exactly: 0.(90) — the parentheses mark the block that repeats forever.
