Why does this decimal repeat?
A fraction produces a repeating decimal when the denominator (in its simplified form) has prime factors other than 2 and 5. 6 has such factors, so 25/6 cannot be expressed as a terminating decimal.
The block 6 repeats indefinitely — this is the exact value, not a rounded approximation.
