<p>To convert 6/21 into a decimal, we will use the<a>division</a>method. Here, as 6 is smaller than 21, we will take advantage<a>of</a>the decimal method, which will give us 0.2857. Let's see the step-by-step breakdown of the process:</p>

<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>Identify the<a>numerator and denominator</a>because the numerator (6) will be taken as the<a>dividend</a>and the denominator (21) will be taken as the<a>divisor</a>.</p>

<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>Identify the<a>numerator and denominator</a>because the numerator (6) will be taken as the<a>dividend</a>and the denominator (21) will be taken as the<a>divisor</a>.</p>
6
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>As 6 is smaller than 21, it can't be divided without a<a>remainder</a>, so we will use decimals. We will add 0 to the dividend, making 6 into 60, and add a decimal point in the quotient place.</p>

<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>As 6 is smaller than 21, it can't be divided without a<a>remainder</a>, so we will use decimals. We will add 0 to the dividend, making 6 into 60, and add a decimal point in the quotient place.</p>
7
<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Now that it is 60, we can divide it by 21. Let's see how many times 21 goes into 60.</p>

<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Now that it is 60, we can divide it by 21. Let's see how many times 21 goes into 60.</p>
8
<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>60 is not a multiple of 21, so we will find the nearest number which is 21 × 2 = 42. We will write 2 in the quotient place and subtract 42 from 60, giving 18.</p>
8
<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>60 is not a multiple of 21, so we will find the nearest number which is 21 × 2 = 42. We will write 2 in the quotient place and subtract 42 from 60, giving 18.</p>
9
<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>Bring down another 0 in the dividend place, making 18 into 180, and then repeat the division process.</p>

<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>Bring down another 0 in the dividend place, making 18 into 180, and then repeat the division process.</p>
10
<p><strong>Step 6:</strong>21 goes into 180 eight times (21 × 8 = 168), so we write 8 in the quotient and subtract 168 from 180, giving 12.</p>
10
<p><strong>Step 6:</strong>21 goes into 180 eight times (21 × 8 = 168), so we write 8 in the quotient and subtract 168 from 180, giving 12.</p>
11
<p><strong>Step 7:</strong>Bring down another 0, making it 120. 21 goes into 120 five times (21 × 5 = 105), so we write 5 in the quotient and subtract 105 from 120, giving 15.</p>
11
<p><strong>Step 7:</strong>Bring down another 0, making it 120. 21 goes into 120 five times (21 × 5 = 105), so we write 5 in the quotient and subtract 105 from 120, giving 15.</p>
12
<p><strong>Step 8:</strong>Bring down another 0, making it 150. 21 goes into 150 seven times (21 × 7 = 147), so we write 7 in the quotient and subtract 147 from 150, giving 3.</p>
12
<p><strong>Step 8:</strong>Bring down another 0, making it 150. 21 goes into 150 seven times (21 × 7 = 147), so we write 7 in the quotient and subtract 147 from 150, giving 3.</p>

<p><strong>Step 9:</strong>Continue the process as needed to see the repeating pattern.</p>
