Umm, assuming in this case it would be 0.4646464646464646...

Then you would just assign it a variable in the beginning:

x = 0.46464646...

Then multiply it by 100, to get:

100x = 46.46464646464646...

Now you just want to subtract x from 100x, or

46.464646464646464646... - 0.46464646464646...

Which would result in 99x = 46.

Now just divide 99 from both sides to get:

x = 46/99

So it would be 46/99.

I think.
