Let the given number be 'x',

\begin{gathered} x=0.4\bar{5} \\ x=0.45555555\ldots\ldots \end{gathered}

Multiply both sides by 10,

\begin{gathered} 10x=4.\bar{5} \\ 10x=4.5555555\ldots\ldots \end{gathered}

Subtract the equations,

\begin{gathered} 10x-x=4.5555\ldots-0.45555\ldots \\ 9x=4.5+0.0\bar{5}-(0.4+0.0\bar{5}) \\ 9x=4.5+0.0\bar{5}-0.4-0.0\bar{5} \\ 9x=4.1 \\ 9x=\frac{41}{10} \\ x=\frac{41}{90} \end{gathered}

Thus, the recurring decimal number is equivalent to the fraction,

0.4\bar{5}=\frac{41}{90}

Sorry, but I generally respond to only 1 or 2 problems when someone gives me a long list of homework.  It would take you just a little longer to post one problem at a time.
                                                                             75                 5       -375
Let's look at #5:     75 / (-1/5)   is the same as  -------- = 75 * ------ = ---------                                                                                         -1                -1         1
                                                                              ---
                                                                                5

and this is equivalent to -375 (answer to #5)
