Answer: 51/90

First set x equal to the decimal (we will solve for x):
x = 0.5666666666...

Now find 10x (we want to get the recurring digit right after the decimal point):
10x = 5.66666666666...

Next we can subtract x from 10x:
9x = 5.1

We can now get x by dividing both sides by 9:
x = 5.1/9

We can’t have a decimal in a fraction so we can multiply the top and bottom numbers by 10:
x = 51/90

Hope this helps!

Answer:

56/100

Explanation:

The decimal place has 2 digits which indicates two zeros. So the denominator will be 100. And 56 will become the numerator.
