Certainly! To convert the repeating decimal 0.14¯¯¯¯¯ to a fraction, we can use the method of fractions.

Let's call the repeating decimal x.
So, x = 0.14¯¯¯¯¯

To remove the repeating part, we can multiply both sides of the equation by 100, since we have two digits after the decimal point. This removes the repeating part and shifts it to the left.

100x = 14.14¯¯¯¯¯

Next, we subtract the original equation from the equation we just obtained:

100x - x = 14.14¯¯¯¯¯ - 0.14¯¯¯¯¯
99x = 14

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

x = 14/99

Therefore, the fraction equivalent of 0.14¯¯¯¯¯ is 14/99.
