Question

Write the recurring decimal 0,101010101... . as a fraction in its simplest form.​

Answer 1

`(10)/(99)`

Explanation:

We require to create 2 equations with the repeating decimal after the decimal point.

let x = 0.10101.... → (1)

Multiply both sides by 100

100x = 10.10101.... → (2)

Subtracting (1) from (2) eliminates the repeating decimal, thus

99x = 10 ( divide both sides by 99 )

x =
`(10)/(99)`
