Answer:


(1)/(18)

Explanation:

We require to create 2 equations with the repeating number placed after the decimal point.

let x = 0.055555 ( multiply both sides by 10 and 100 )

10x = 0.555555 → (1)

100x = 5.55555 → (2)

Subtract (1) from (2) to eliminate the repeating decimal

90x = 5 ( divide both sides by 90 )

x =
(5)/(90) =
(1)/(18)
