To convert these fractions correctly into decimal form, we need to analyze each option:
-
A. 78/99 \[ \frac{78}{99} = \frac{78 \div 3}{99 \div 3} = \frac{26}{33} \] To express \( \frac{26}{33} \): \[ 26 \div 33 = 0.7878\ldots = 0.\overline{78} \] Thus, \( 78/99 \) actually equals \( 0.\overline{78} \), not \( 07\overline{6} \).
-
B. 3/99 \[ \frac{3}{99} = \frac{1}{33} \] To express \( \frac{1}{33} \): \[ 1 \div 33 = 0.030303\ldots = 0.\overline{03} \] So, \( 3/99 \) is not equal to \( 0.\overline{3} \).
-
C. 8/99 \[ \frac{8}{99} \] A direct division yields: \[ 8 \div 99 = 0.080808\ldots = 0.\overline{08} \] Thus, \( 8/99 = 0.\overline{08} \) is correct.
-
D. 847/99 \[ 847/99 = 8 + \frac{47}{99} = 8 + 0.\overline{47} \] Thus, \( 847/99 = 8.0\overline{47} \), which means it is also correctly expressed as \( 0.8\overline{47} \).
In conclusion, the options that are correctly converted into their decimal equivalents are:
- C. 8/99 = 0.\overline{08}
- D. 847/99 = 0.8\overline{47}
However, between these options:
- C. is fully stated as correct without any transformation.
- D. while technically correct, it should ideally be interpreted as \( 8.\overline{47} \).
Overall: The best fit for the question only asks about clear representation in decimal form without any ambiguity is C.
