To change a terminating decimal to a fraction use place value.
For example: In the decimal .75 the 5 is in the hundredths place so we put 75/100 which can be reduced to 3/4 .
In the decimal .2 the 2 is in the tenths place so we put 2/10 which can be reduced to 1/5.
Changing a repeating decimal to a fraction is a bit trickier. Look at the following fractions and their equivalent repeating decimals.
5/9 = 0.5555
7/9 = 0.7777
12/99 = 0.121212
23/99 = 0.232323
456/999 = 0.456456456
78/999 = 078/999 = 0.078078078
So we can see that fractions with a denominator of 9, 99, 999, 9999, are useful for making repeating decimals. All we have to do is to reduce the fraction to its lowest terms.
For example, let’s take the repeating decimal 0.027027027…
Clearly this is 27/999 = 1/37 (having divided top and bottom of the fraction by 27)
Now let’s try something more tricky.
Take a look at 0.4588888888… This isn’t simply something divided by 99.. since the 45 bit doesn’t repeat. What we need to do is move the decimal point over to the start of the repeating bit. In this case we multiply by 100 to get 45.888888…
Now we know the fraction part is 8/9 . In total we have 45 + 8/9 = 413/9 (changing into a top-heavy fraction will make things easier for us).
So 45.88888… = 413/9
Now just divide both sides by 100 to get: 0.458888… = 4.13/9
0.444444… = 4/9 since the repeating block is 4 (a 1-digit block),
0.565656… = 56/99 since the repeating block is 56 (a 2-digit block),
0.012012… = 12/999 since the repeating block is 012 (a 3-digit block), and this further reduces to 4/333
0.9999999… = 9/9 = 1, since the repeating block is 9 (also a 1-digit block)
Simples, obviously any fucktard knows this, right dude |

It's a who cums first game, you standing up, one leg draped over my shoulder while I am on my knees, going down in you while furiously whacking off over your kinky high heels. Whoever cums first, loses. |

If you come here and give me a blow job (with full lippy), then I might be interested in letting you know "the secret" "
Sorry, someone beat you to it, but then again there's no harm on getting a second opinion - send us the address |
