Something neat with the number 11.

Ryan shared with me something neat about the number 11.

1 / 11 = 0.090909...

2 / 11 = 0.181818...

3 / 11 = 0.272727...

4 / 11 = 0.363636...

5 / 11 = 0.454545...

6 / 11 = 0.545454...

7 / 11 = 0.636363...

8 / 11 = 0.727272...

9 / 11 = 0.818181...

So, as you can see, the repeated number behind the decimal adds up to 9, and begins with a number 1 less than the number you're dividing.  Isn't that just neat?

Not only does it add up to 9 but the repeated number is 9 times the numerator.
