Read all almost 7 over 16 of the total water supplied to a household is wasted because of leaky faucets. use long division to determine the decimal equivalent of 7 over 16. use words to explain if the decimal terminates or repeats. (can you put the answer in long division and then put the long division into word and you)

It terminates 9÷16=.5625

You are to divide 16 INTO 7:  7/16

      4_3_7
16 /   7 .  0  0  0
         6    4
         
                6 0
             - 4  8
             
                 1 2 0
                - 1 1 2
               
                         8 0
                         8 0
                       
                             0

We say this result "terminates" because we found no remainder.

0.123123123 is an example of a non-terminating fraction.
                                        0.123        123
This fraction is equal to   = = .123123123
