decimal question

-----------------------------------

Hw can you write a programe using loop which prints the decimal equivalent of the fractions 1/2 to 1/10?

sample output
the decimal equivalent of 1/2 is .500
....
the decimal equivalent of 1/10 is .100

I tried to write this, but it doesn't work.


var decimal : real
var denominator :real:=1
loop
    decimal:= 1 /(denominator + 1)
    put "The decimal equivalent of", decimal : 3, "is", decimal : 3
    exit when denominator >= 10

end loop


Thanks in advance
