standard_description: Approximate the probability of a chance event by collecting data on the chance process that produces it and observing its long-run relative frequency, and predict the approximate relative frequency given the probability. For example, when rolling a number cube 600 times, predict that a 3 or 6 would be rolled roughly 200 times, but probably not exactly 200 times.
problem_activity: Task
Use long division to find the repeating decimal that represents $\frac{29}{13}$
Take the number obtained by including only the first two digits after the decimal point, and multiply that by $13$.
Take the number obtained by including only the first four digits after the decimal point, and multiply that by $13$.
Take the number obtained by including only the first six digits after the decimal point, and multiply that by $13$.
What do you notice about the product of $13$ and decimal approximations of $\frac{29}{13}$ as more and more digits are included after the decimal point?
How does what you observed in Part (e) help make sense of what it means for $\frac{29}{13}$ to be equal to the repeating decimal expression you found in the Part (a)?
