Answer 1

Answer:

Solution for how to convert 5.61 repeating as a fraction in simplest form

First, create an equation that represents the repeating decimal that you want to convert to a fraction

x = 5.6161.... (1)

There are 2 repeating decimals, multiply both sides of the equation by 102 = 100 so that both equations have the same repeating digits to the right of the decimal point

100x = 561.6161... (2)

Subtract the equation (1) from equation (2)

100x= 561.6161...

x =5.6161...

99x = 556

Solve for the x in the equation to determine the equivalent fraction.

x =$\frac{556}{99}$
