To convert the given irrational number to the rational expression which involves the ratio of two numbers, we divide the repeating numbers by 9.

From 5.764764764, we separate the given by the whole number and the decimal place.
5 + 0.764764

Since three numbers are repeated, the rational expression should be,
5 764/999
