\huge{ \mathfrak{ \underline{question : }}}

Write
0.\bar{5}\bar{2} as a fraction.


\huge{ \mathfrak{ \underline{ Answer \: \: ✓ }}}

let the number
0.\bar{5}\bar{2} = x

then, 100x =
52.\bar{5}\bar{2}

subtracting x from 100x


  • 100x - x = 52.\bar{5}\bar{2} - 0.\bar{5}\bar{2}


  • 99x = 52


  • \boxed{x = (52)/(99)}

Answer:


\huge\boxed{(52)/(99) }

Explanation:

Let

x = 0.52525252.......... ---------------------(1)

Multiplying both sides by 100

100x = 52.5252525252....... ---------------(2)

Subtract Eq. (1) from (2)

100x - x = 52.52... - 0.5252........

99x = 52

Dividing both sides by 99

x = 52 / 99


\rule[225]{225}{2}

Hope this helped!
