Answer:
0.66666.... = 0. 6bar
Let 0. 6 be x
x = 0. 6bar ----1
Multiplying both sides by 10
10x = 6. 6bar ------2
Subtracting 1 from 2
10x-x = 6. 6bar - 0. 6bar
9x = 6
x = 6/9
x = 2/3

Answer:
Answer = 6/9 = 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
To show:-
0.6666... in form of p/q
SOLUTION:-
Let x = 0.6666... (I)
or, 10x = 10 * 0.6666...
or, 10x = 6.6666... (ll)
On subtracting equation l from ll
=> 10x - x = 6.6666... - 0.6666...
or, 9x = 6
or, x = 6/9 = 2/3
So, 0.6666.... = 2/3
