What is 0.36... (36 is repeating) expressed as a fraction in simplest form? I got 36/90 and got in simplest form: 2/5. However when I look at other answers they say its 9/25 and 4/11. So how do I calculate this correctly?

0.36x10=36.363636
0.36x1000=3636.363636
3636.36-36.36=3600
1000x-10x=990

3600/990=360/99
120/33=40/11 I think?
