Answer:


(131)/(99)

Explanation:

we require 2 equations with the repeating digits placed after the decimal point.

let x = 1.3232... (1) ← multiply both sides by 100

100x = 132.3232... (2)

subtract (1) from (2) thus eliminating the repeating digits

99x = 131 ( divide both sides by 99 )

x =
(131)/(99)
