Final answer:
The rational number that equals 0.1 with a bar over it is 1/9.
Step-by-step explanation:
The rational number that equals 0.1 with a bar over 1 is 1/9. To convert a repeating decimal to a fraction, we set up an equation where x is the repeating decimal: x = 0.1111... Then we multiply both sides of the equation by a power of 10 that has the same number of digits as the repeating part, so in this case, we multiply by 10. This gives us: 10x = 1.1111... Subtracting the original equation from the new one gets rid of the repeating part: 10x - x = 1.1111... - 0.1111... Simplifying and solving for x gives us: 9x = 1, or x = 1/9.
