4/11 as a Decimal
4/11 = 0.3̅6̅
4/11 as a decimal is 0.3̅6̅ — the digits 36 repeat forever (≈ 0.363636).
Step by step
- Divide 4 by 11: 0 whole (so the answer starts 0.), remainder 4.
- Bring down a 0: 40 ÷ 11 = 3, remainder 7.
- Bring down a 0: 70 ÷ 11 = 6, remainder 4.
- Bring down a 0: 40 ÷ 11 = 3, remainder 7.
- Bring down a 0: 70 ÷ 11 = 6, remainder 4.
- Bring down a 0: 40 ÷ 11 = 3, remainder 7.
- Bring down a 0: 70 ÷ 11 = 6, remainder 4.
- Result: 4/11 = 0.3̅6̅ (repeating).
Why it repeats: after removing factors of 2 and 5, the denominator 11 still has the factor 11, so the division never ends and the remainders cycle. The repeating block “36” has 2 digits; round it to the precision you need, for example 0.36 or 0.3636.

How it works
A fraction means division: the numerator (top) divided by the denominator (bottom). Use long division, adding zeros after the decimal point until the remainder is zero or a remainder repeats. If the simplified denominator has only 2 and 5 as prime factors, the decimal terminates; otherwise it repeats forever, and the repeating digits are marked with a bar.
