Note that the division of any two integers will always produce a period, but if the numerator is an exact multiple of the denominator, or if the denominator contains only the factors 2 and 5, the period will be 0. In the remaining cases, these possible 2's and 5's of the denominator produce a leading number of digits in the quotient, but have no effect on the period. <br> |
