Answer:

1423/33

Explanation:

Let x = 43.121212.........

Two digits are repeating after decimal point. So multiply both sides by 100

100x = 4312.1212 --------------(I)

x = 43.1212 -----------(II) { subtract equation (II) form (I)}

99x = 4269

x= 4269/99 {reduce to simplest form by giving by 3rd table}

x = 1423/33
