Answer:


(83)/(99)

Step-by-step explanation:5

We have to expressed the
0.\overline{83} as a fraction in simplest form.

Let x =
0.\overline{83} = 0.8383... ....[1]

Multiply by 100 to both sides we have;


100x = 83.8383.. ....[2]

Subtract [1] from [2] we have;


99x = 83

Divide both sides by 99 we have;


x = (83)/(99)

Therefore, the
0.\overline{83} as a fraction in simplest form is,
(83)/(99)
