when you divide a number and the answer has a whole long stretch of decimals(20.103030303),it can either be an imaginary number or real number.in this case there is recurring numbers (303) thus it can be expressed as a fraction.for example (0.3333333...)= 1/3
it is a decimal that repeat its number
a recurring decimal number eg.
. .
0.12312312312312 is actually 123/999
1) 0.3333333...=1/3
2) 20.010303030...=x
=100x=0.010303030...-x
=2001.03030303.....-x
=1981.02x100
=198102/9900-ans
Teacher i was doing my answer when milton finished i never seehis 0.333333 so this is my new number
For example an recurring number
(0.333333),this is recurring numbers so it can be expressed as a fraction.for example (0.6666666...)= 2/3
When you divide a number and the answer has a whole long stretch of decimals.(0.123123123)it can either be an rational number or irrational number.in this case there is recurring numbers (123)thus it can be expressed as a fraction.For example(0.99999999999)=9/10
0.121212...........=4/33
0.121212...........=4/33

0.17171717... is a recurring decimal.
..
100x 0.17= 17.171717...
-
1x 0.17= 0.17
= 99x 0.17= 17
..
0.17 = 17/99
eh, the attitude girl that post is pearlyn's post. i am using my cousin's account to post, because i cannot post using my name.
For example an recurring number
(0.333333...),this is recurring numbers so it can be expressed as a fraction for example (0.11111.....) is also a recurring decimal it can be expressed as 1/9.

hmm... lets see ;D
A reccuring decimal is a decimal (duh! ;D) that repeats numbers in a certain form , eg. 0.369369369369369369 .... etc.
it will equal to : 369/999 :D

Hello! Krystal here i dont know how to put user name psps... Uhhh not really sure I understand the concept so I trying only...
The recurring decimal I want to use is 0.15151515...
To change a recurring decimal into a fraction,we should see the amount of numbers being repeated. For the number I am using ,it has two recurring decimals so we should take 10 to the power of 2
0.1515151515x100=15.15151515
0.1515151515x1=0.1515151515
15.15151515-0.151515151515=15
As we have a ''balance'' of 99x15 ,we ''use'' it as 15/99
=5/33

An example of a recurring number:9.0909090909...
This is the trick to find out what fraction that repeating number is equal to.
First, count the number of digits in the repetend. if the repetend is 09, the number of digits is 2.
Next multiply your repeating decimal by a power of 10.
If we multiply the repeating decimal by a power of 10 in this way, we end up with a decimal which has the repetend to the LEFT of the decimal point, and the same repeating decimal we started out with to the right of the decimal point.
After we multiply by this appropriate power of 10, we get the sum of an integer(which is numerically equal to whatever
the repetend was) and the repeating decimal we started out with. If we let x be the repeating decimal we started out with, we find:
Let x be the repeating decimal we started out with, we find:
If x = .0909..., you can see that we get 100x = 9 + x, or
99x = 9, or x = 9/99 = 1/11.
when you divide a no. and the answer has a recurring decimal,you take the numbers that are repeated and classify them as one set. e.g 0.33333......you take the number 3.then to make the recurring decimal 0.33333....to a fraction,you times the recurring decimal by 10 as the recurring number is a singe digit.thus,the answer is 3.333333...to make it a whole number,you must minus 0.3333..to get the whole number as 3.
3.33333..=10 times of 0.3333....
3=9 times of 0.333333
=3/9
=1/3
A recurring decimal usually is
either a imaginary or real number,
such as (0.313131...). Logically,
such a number cannot be
represented by a decimal, so it is
expressed through fractions(31/100)
Oops. What did I do?
how but 0.24565656565656.... how do i do?
