By "repeating", do you mean "recurring" (the only term I have ever seen for values like 0.33333.....)?
If so perhaps the easiest way is by a division (hard to represent in a very basic text editor not set up to represent arithmetic):
3)1.00000000
3 into 1 won't go so carry 1:
3 )0.10 = 0.3 remainder 0.01 so carry 1:
3)0.310...
0.33....
And so on, if that survives being posted!

Use apples, so 10 apples is 10 decimals. 8 apples is 8 of 10 decimals, and so on.

Use a long division example, e.g. 2 / 3. You really feel what it represents doing long division.
