Answer 1

Answer:

x=3175/990

Step-by-step explanation:

x= 0.3178178.... (i)

Multiply 10 on both sides-

10x=3.178178... (ii)

Multiply 100 on both sides-

100x=31.78178.... (iii)

Multiply 1000 on both sides-

1000x=317.8178..... (iv)

Multiply 10,000 on both sides-

10000x= 3178.178178 (v)

Subtract (ii) from (v)

10000x-10x= 3178.178178..... --3.178178

9990x= 3175

x=3175/990
