Hello Mate!
Let x = 0.123333333.......
Now multiply 100 from x
100x = 12.33333.....
100x = 12 + 0.3333......
( Now let y = 0.3333..... -----(1) Multiply 10 from y
10y = 3.3333...... -----(2)
(2) - (1) => 10y - y = 3.333... - 0.333....
9y = 3 => y = 3/9 or 1/3 )
100x = 12 + 1/3
100x = ( 36 + 1 ) / 3
x = 37/300
Hope it helps☺!✌
