Correct answer: 3/9.

The period, the part that repeats after the comma, is 3. Thus, the decimal can be written as: 0 comma 3 with slash superscript.

We can solve it by two methods:

Method 1: fractional

We add the whole part with a fraction, where the numerator will be the period and, in the denominator, a digit 9 for each digit different from the period.

0 space plus space 3 over 9

In this particular case, the integer part is zero, so the answer is 3 out of 9.

Method 2: algebraic

Step 1: we equate the decimal to x, obtaining equation I.

x equals 0 comma 3 with slash superscript space left parenthesis and q u atio n space I right parenthesis

Step 2: we multiply both sides of the equation by 10, obtaining equation II.

10 space. straight space x equals 10 space. space 0 comma 3 with slash superscript 10 straight x equals 3 comma 3 with slash superscript space left parenthesis and when space I I right parenthesis

Step 3: we subtract from equation II the equation I.

Step 4: We isolate x and find the generating fraction.

x equals 3 over 9

Correct answer: 9/13.

The period, the part that repeats after the comma, is 4. Thus, the decimal can be written as: 1 comma 4 with slash superscript.

We can solve it by two methods:

Method 1: fractional

We add the whole part with a fraction, where the numerator will be the period and, in the denominator, a digit 9 for each digit different from the period.

1 space plus space 4 over 9 equals 9 over 9 plus 4 over 9 equals 13 over 9

Method 2: algebraic

Step 1: we equate the decimal to x, obtaining equation I.

Step 4: We isolate x and find the generating fraction.

straight x equals 13 over 9

Correct answer: 41/99

The period, the part that repeats after the comma, is 41. Thus, the decimal can be written as: 0 comma 41 with slash superscript.

We can solve it by two methods:

Method 1: fractional

We add the whole part with a fraction, where the numerator will be the period and, in the denominator, a digit 9 for each digit different from the period.

0 space plus space 41 over 99 equals 41 over 99

Method 2: algebraic

Step 1: we equate the decimal to x, obtaining equation I.

straight x equals 0 comma 41 with slash superscript space left parenthesis and when space I right parenthesis

Step 2: we multiply both sides of the equation by 100, obtaining equation II. (because there are two digits in the decimal).

100 space. straight space x equals 100 space. space 0 comma 41 with slash superscript 100 straight x equals 41 comma 41 with slash superscript space left parenthesis and q u a tion space I I right parenthesis

Step 3: we subtract from equation II the equation I.

Step 4: We isolate x and find the generating fraction.

x equals 41 over 99

Correct answer: 2505/990

We can rewrite as: 2 comma 5 30 with slash superscript, where 30 is the period. This is a compound decimal.

Step 1: equal to x.

straight x equals 2 comma 5 30 with slash superscript

step 2: Multiply both sides of the equation by 10, obtaining equation I.

Since the tithe is compound, this will make it simple.

10 space. straight space x equals 10 space. space 2 comma 5 30 with slash superscript 10 straight x equals 25 comma 30 with slash superscript space left parenthesis and q u a tion space I right parenthesis

step 3: multiply equation I by 100 on both sides of the equality, obtaining equation II.

100 space. space 10 straight x equals 100 space. space 25 comma 30 with slash superscript 1 space 000 straight x equals 2 space 530 comma 30 with slash superscript

step 3: Subtract equation I from II.

Error converting from MathML to accessible text.

step 4: Isolate the x and do the division.

x equals numerator 2 space 505 over denominator 990 end of fraction equals 2 comma 5 30 with slash superscript space equals space 2 comma 5303030 space... space

Correct answer: 2025/990

We can rewrite as: 2 comma 0 45 with slash superscript, where 45 is the period.

Step 1: equal to x.

straight x equals 2 comma 0 45 with slash superscript

step 2: multiply both sides of the equation by 10, obtaining equation I.

Since the tithe is compound, this will make it simple.

10 space. straight space x equals 10 space. space 2 comma 0 45 with slash superscript 10 straight x equals 20 comma 45 with slash superscript space left parenthesis and q u a tion space I right parenthesis

step 3: multiply equation I by 100 on both sides of the equality, obtaining equation II.

100 space. space 10 straight x equals 100 space. space 20 comma 45 with slash superscript space 1 space 000 straight x equals 2 space 045 comma 45 with slash superscript space left parenthesis and what space I I right parenthesis

step 3: Subtract equation I from II.

step 4: Isolate the x and do the division.

x equals numerator 2 space 025 over denominator 990 end of fraction equals 2 comma 0 45 with slash superscript space equals space 2 comma 0454545 space...

Correct answer: a) 2

Doing the division, we find:

numerator 22 space 229 over denominator 27 space 027 end of fraction equals 0 comma 822473 822473 822473 822473 space... space

Note that the decimal can be rewritten as: 0 comma 822473 with slash superscript

The period repeats every 6 digits, and the nearest integer multiple of the 50th decimal place will be:

6 x 8 = 48

Thus, the last digit 3 of the period will occupy the 48th decimal place. Therefore, in the next repetition, the first digit 2 will occupy the 50th position.

Correct answer: b) 89

It is necessary to determine the generating fraction and, after, simplify and add numerator and denominator.

We can rewrite as: 0 comma 011 36 with slash superscript, where 36 is the period.

Step 1: equal to x.

straight x equals 0 comma 011 36 with slash superscript
