Answer:


3.126666666666...=3.12\overline{6}

Explanation:

If the decimal number is repeating, then bar notation is used. A symbol called "bar" is used to express that type of numbers. it is placed at the top of the number that is repeating.

We have a number i.e. 3.126666666666...

We need express it in bar notation.

In this problem, 6 is repeating. It means "bar" is placed over 6.

So,


3.126666666666...=3.12\overline{6}

It is the bar notation of 3.126666666666...
