# Reciprocal cycles

## Problem 26
3+
A unit fraction contains 1 in the numerator. The decimal representation of the unit fractions with denominators 2 to 10 are given:
4+
5+
1/2 = 0.5<br/>
6+
1/3 = 0.(3)<br/>
7+
1/4 = 0.25<br/>
8+
1/5 = 0.2<br/>
9+
1/6 = 0.1(6)<br/>
10+
1/7 = 0.(142857)<br/>
11+
1/8 = 0.125<br/>
12+
1/9 = 0.(1)<br/>
13+
1/10 = 0.1<br/>
14+
15+
Where 0.1(6) means 0.166666..., and has a 1-digit recurring cycle. It can be seen that 1/7 has a 6-digit recurring cycle.
16+
17+
Find the value of d < 1000 for which 1/d contains the longest recurring cycle in its decimal fraction part.
