For each part of this problem, convert the fraction to a "decimal" in the specified base. (a) Convert the fraction 1/2 to base 3.

(b) Convert the fraction 1/7 to base 8.

(c) Convert the fraction 1/(b-1) to base b.

I already have the solutions to parts a and b, but I included them for context. It would be great if someone helped explain c. I know the answer to c, but not why and how it's proven. It'd be great if someone explained that. Thank you!
