step 6 Simplify the above expression further:
= 5 + (100/11 x 1/100)
= 5 + (99 + 1/11 x 1/100)
= 5 + [(99/11 + 1/11 ) x 1/100]
= 5 + [(9 + 1/11) x 1/100]
step 7 Repeat the step 5 to find the decimal equivalent for the fraction 1/11 in the above expression:
= 5 + [(9 + 1/11) x 1/100]
= 5 + [(9 + 0.09) x 1/100]
= 5 + (9.09 x 1/100)
= 5 + 9.09/100
= 5 + 0.0909
