Answer:

x = 126/999

Explanation:

Let x = .126126126 repeating

Multiply each side by 1000

1000x = 126.126126126 repeating

subtract the first equation from the second

1000x = 126.126126126 repeating

- x = .126126126 repeating

999x = 126

Divide each side by 999

999x/999 = 126/999

x = 126/999
