Answer:

0.6428571

Explanation:

First, divide 9 by 14 to get 0.6428571428571

There is a pattern here. Notice how after "428571", the sequence repeats again with another "429571" - I've bolded it and underlined it to show the relationship.

Now, remove the bolded and underlined section. Draw a straight line over the "428571" in your decimal.

This is a recurring decimal.
