Division by 7 gives an interesting pattern of decimals,142857, the six repeating digits of     1/7.                                                                                                            Capture9. If it is multiplied by 2,3,4,5,6 the answer shall be a cyclic permutation of itself and will correspond to the repeating digits of 2/7, 3/7, 4/7, 5/7 and so on.

Capture10(This can be shared with students of class IX (CBSE) as per NCERT  textbook.)                                                                                                     .
