what is the 2013th digit after the decimal point in the decimal expansion of 8 /81?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

observe: \(8/81=0.098765432098765\dots\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's rational so there's a repeating decimal expansion and we see every 9 digits it repeats \(098765432\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh, I know how to find the answer now:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

... so all were interested in is the *remainder* of 2013 when divided by 9:$$2013\mod 9=6$$

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you find the 6th number in our pattern... ? :-)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):
