Answer: 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The quotient of a number is gotten by dividing a number with another number. From the question, Jim is dividing 5 by 12.

To divide, this will be written as 5/12. The numerator is 5 while the denominator is 12. We then change from fraction to decimal. This will give:

5/12 = 0.416666666

The number that keeps on repeating is 6 which can be seen above.
