Convert 0.5555... to a fraction(1 point)

9 answers

To convert 0.5555... to a fraction, we can let x = 0.5555... and multiply it by 10 to eliminate the repeating decimal:

10x = 5.5555...

Next, we subtract x from 10x:

10x - x = 5.5555... - 0.5555...

This simplifies to:

9x = 5

To solve for x, we divide both sides of the equation by 9:

x = 5/9

Therefore, 0.5555... as a fraction is 5/9.

Convert 0.2727... to a rational number in simplest form.(1 point)
To convert 0.2727... to a rational number in simplest form, we can let x = 0.2727... and multiply it by 100 to eliminate the repeating decimal:

100x = 27.2727...

Next, we subtract x from 100x:

100x - x = 27.2727... - 0.2727...

This simplifies to:

99x = 27

To solve for x, we divide both sides of the equation by 99:

x = 27/99

Now, we can simplify the fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 9:

x = (27/9) / (99/9)
x = 3/11

Therefore, 0.2727... as a rational number in simplest form is 3/11.

To convert 0.33... to a fraction, we can let x = 0.33... and multiply it by 100 to eliminate the repeating decimal:

100x = 33.33...

Next, we subtract x from 100x:

100x - x = 33.33... - 0.33...

This simplifies to:

99x = 33

To solve for x, we divide both sides of the equation by 99:

x = 33/99 = 1/3

Therefore, 0.33... as a fraction is equal to 1/3.

If a repeating decimal has a repeating cycle of three digits, it will convert to a rational number with what denominator?(1 point)
If a repeating decimal has a repeating cycle of three digits, it will convert to a rational number with a denominator of 999.

This is because the repeating cycle of three digits in the decimal can be expressed as a fraction with the numerator being the repeating digits and the denominator being a string of nines with the same number of digits as the repeating cycle.

For example, if the repeating cycle is 123, the fraction equivalent would be 123/999.

Therefore, a repeating decimal with a repeating cycle of three digits will convert to a rational number with a denominator of 999.
THESE ARE ALL RIGHT!!!!!!
