6/7 as a repeating decimal is 0.857142857142.

To write 6/7 as a repeating decimal we would divide 6 by 7, and the answer is 0.857142857142. The repeating pattern is 857142, so instead of continuing to write this over and over, a bar could be placed over these numbers to show that this pattern continues.
