#2/3 = 0.666... = 0.bar6#

The #6# repeats to infinity and beyond.

#.66666666bar6#

Explanation:

To get 2/3 as a decimal, you must divide the numerator by the denominator

#color(red)(2-:3#

Doing this will give you the decimal of #.66666bar6#

The line over the 6, just means it is repeating, because 3 will never evenly go into 3.
