Expert Answer
This can be done using multiplication. But there is no need to do that even. Directly you can observe the decimal part of 1/7.
To multiply 2(1/7), we shift the decimal two places to the right.
Similarly, to multiply 2(1/7), we shift the decimal point, three places to the right.
The same can be done for the others.
This happens since 1/7 is recurring and hence you will get the same remainders again and again after a certain pattern.
