3. Rewrite the following fractions as decimals: $$ \begin{array}{llll}	ext { a) } \frac{2}{5} & 	ext { b) } \frac{3}{4} & 	ext { c) } \frac{2}{7} & 	ext { d) } \frac{5}{6} \ 	ext { e) } \frac{3}{8} & 	ext { f) } \frac{2}{11} & \end{array} $$

Sure! Let's rewrite each of the given fractions as decimals:

### a) $$ \frac{2}{5} $$
$$
\frac{2}{5} = 0.4
$$

### b) $$ \frac{3}{4} $$
$$
\frac{3}{4} = 0.75
$$

### c) $$ \frac{2}{7} $$
$$
\frac{2}{7} \approx 0.\overline{285714}
$$
*This is a repeating decimal where the sequence "285714" repeats indefinitely.*

### d) $$ \frac{5}{6} $$
$$
\frac{5}{6} \approx 0.\overline{833333}
$$
*Here, the digit "3" repeats indefinitely after the decimal point.*

### e) $$ \frac{3}{8} $$
$$
\frac{3}{8} = 0.375
$$

### f) $$ \frac{2}{11} $$
$$
\frac{2}{11} \approx 0.\overline{18}
$$
*The digits "18" repeat indefinitely.*

**Summary of Decimal Conversions:**

$$
\begin{align*}
\text{a) } & \frac{2}{5} = 0.4 \
\text{b) } & \frac{3}{4} = 0.75 \
\text{c) } & \frac{2}{7} \approx 0.\overline{285714} \
\text{d) } & \frac{5}{6} \approx 0.\overline{833333} \
\text{e) } & \frac{3}{8} = 0.375 \
\text{f) } & \frac{2}{11} \approx 0.\overline{18} \
\end{align*}
