<h3><u>answer</u><u>:</u></h3>

<em>x</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>-4</em>

<h3><em>steps</em><em>:</em></h3>

Let the number = x (set up an equation)

2x = -3x - 20

add 3x to both sides

5x = -20

divide by 5 on both sides

<u>x</u><u> </u><u>=</u><u> </u><u>-4</u>

yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

The decimal form of \frac{1}{15} = 0.0666... = 0.0\overline{666}.

Step-by-step explanation:

We proceed to find the decimal form of \frac{1}{15}, whose description is found below:

1) Multiplying the numerator by 100 and dividing it by 15:

Partial result: 0.06, Remainder: 10

2) Multiplying the remainder by the 10 and dividing it by 15:

Partial result: 0.066, Remainder: 10

3) Multiplying the remainder by the 10 and dividing it by 15:

Partial result: 0.0666, Remainder: 10

Since the decimal number is a infinite and periodical, we conclude that decimal form of \frac{1}{15} = 0.0666... = 0.0\overline{666}.
