Shouldn't the 100,000th digit be 7, and not 2?

An alternate way to solve this, if you have a weird brain like me :)

You may have memorized that 1/11=.090909…
Simply multiply that by 3 (as it is asking for 3/11):
.27272…
You get the same answer of 2 being the digit in the hundred-thousandths place.

And yes Niyati801, the hundred thousandTH decimal place would be 7, but the question is asking for the hundred thousandTHS digit. Got me too at first!
