Question

Pealed solve and explain.

Answer 1

`(131)/(90)`

Explanation:

We require 2 equations with the repeating 5 placed after the decimal point.

let x = 1.4555... ( multiply both sides by 10 and 100 )

10x = 14.55... → (1)

100x = 145.55... → (2)

Subtract (1) from (2) , eliminating the repeating 5

90x = 131 ( divide both sides by 90 )

x =
`(131)/(90)`
