Abstract

In the article on ‘Recurring Decimals’ published in the November 2013 issue of At Right Angles, many questions remained unanswered in the end. They had emerged as empirical observations during the course of the exploration. We study these observations closely here, examine their validity and explain them using simple principles of divisibility.
