Explanation:

Convert a Repeating Decimal to a Fraction

Create an equation such that x equals the decimal number.

Count the number of decimal places, y. Create a second equation multiplying both sides of the first equation by 10y.

Subtract the second equation from the first equation.

Solve for x.

Reduce the fraction.
