dont ask me why...I cant really explain it...but if u have 1 repeating decimal, u put it over 9. If u have 2 repeating decimals, u put it over 99....3 repeating decimals, put it over 999.

Examples :
0.7 (repeating) = 7/9
0.27 (repeating) = 27/99 when simplified = 3/11 <===
0.444 (repeating = 444/999

0.27 (repeating) is an irrational number and can be transformed into a rational number using a calculator. In this case, we input 7 more than ten times after 2 and get the rational number 5/18. The answer to this problem therefore is 5/18.
