Question

What is 3.7 repeating, as a mixed number

Answer 1

Answer:

$3\frac{7}{9}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We can rewrite 3.7 repeating as 3.7777777.....

Let x = 3.7777777....... -------(1)      [multiply 10 to both side]

10x = 37.777777...... ----------(2)     [subtract equation (1) from equation(2)]

10x - x = 37.777777 - 3.7777777

9x = 34

x = $\frac{34}{9}$

  = $3\frac{7}{9}$

The mixed number of 3.7 repeating is $3\frac{7}{9}$
