answer: 23/45
step-by-step explanation:
write out your equation equal to x
x = 0.51 with a repeating 1
count the repeating decimal (1) and multiply each sides of the equation by 10^1
10x = 5.11 with a repeating 1
9x = 4.6 subtract the first equation from the second
solve for x
x = 4.6/9
eliminate the 1 decimals by multiplying the numerator and denominator by 10^1
4.6/9 • 10/10 = 46/90
find the greatest common factor
46/2 / 90/2 = 23/45
the fraction is already simplified at 23/45
i hope this helps :)
