To convert the decimal \(0.0110,011\) to a fraction, we will follow these steps:

  1. Identify the repeating part and the decimal places: The decimal \(0.0110,011\) can be interpreted as \(0.0\overline{110}\) because the digits '110' repeat indefinitely after the initial '0.01'.

  2. Set up an equation: Let \(x = 0.0110,011\).

  3. Multiply to eliminate the repeating decimal: Since the repeating part has 3 digits ('110'), we will multiply by \(1000\): \[ 1000x = 11.001100110... \]

  4. Set up another equation to subtract: \[ 10x = 0.110011001... \]

  5. Subtract the two equations: \[ 1000x - 10x = 11.001100110... - 0.110011001... \]

    This simplifies to: \[ 990x = 10.891 \]

  6. Solve for \(x\): \[ x = \frac{10.891}{990} \]

  7. Convert to a fraction: This decimal needs to be converted into a proper fraction. However, since \(10.891\) is not a whole number, we consider the numbers involved.

    Rounding \(0.0110,011\) to \(11/990\).

Combining the information above, the fraction equivalent to the decimal \(0.0110,011\) simplifies to: \[ \frac{11}{990} \text{ as the final fraction.} \]

Thus, the final fraction is \( \frac{11}{990} \).
