Answer:

1 28/99

Explanation:

When a number with 1-2 digits is divided by 99, it gets repeated with two digits. For example, 2/99=0.0202020202...

Another example would be 18/99=0.18181818...

Using this information, we can determine that 1.28282828 repeating would be 1 28/99

Let me know if you have any questions! :)
