The number "0.01020304..." is actually a non-repeating decimal, meaning that it doesn't follow a specific pattern and goes on infinitely without repeating.
For such numbers, they cannot be expressed as fractions because fractions represent the division of two integers and can be written as a/b, where a and b are integers and b is not equal to 0.
Since the non-repeating decimal does not have a finite representation, it cannot be expressed as a fraction. However, it can be approximated by a fraction using decimal approximations, such as writing 0.01020304... as 1/100 + 2/10,000 + 3/1,000,000 + 4/100,000,000 + ....
In this form, it represents an infinite sum, but it is still an approximation rather than an exact representation as a fraction.
can irrational numbers like "0.01020304...."can be written as a fraction?
