4/23 = 0.1739130434782609

 

Mmm there is a lot of digits repeating here.  You may need first of all to work out how many repeat 

I'd probably try a calculator that shows more  places or do it by hand.

4/23 = 0.1739130434782608695652   1739130434782608695652    1739130434782608695652....has a "period" of 22 digits.

 

Therefore: 2007 mod 22 = 5. This means that 2007th digit is the 5th digit to the right of the decimal point, which is a "1", 0.1 7 3 9 1
