Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{83}{99}$

Step-by-step explanation:5

We have to expressed the $0.\overline{83}$ as a fraction in simplest form.

Let x = $0.\overline{83}$ = 0.8383...           ....[1]

Multiply by 100 to both sides we have;

$100x = 83.8383..$               ....[2]

Subtract  [1] from [2] we have;

$99x = 83$

Divide both sides by 99 we have;

$x = \frac{83}{99}$

Therefore, the $0.\overline{83}$ as a fraction in simplest form is, $\frac{83}{99}$
