Hi,
a)let 0.24 be x.
100x(two zeros because two decimals are repeating)=24.24<span> ̅(24 is repeating)
Now subtract 100x-x on both sides. This forms an equation.
100x-x=24.24(.24 is repeating) -0.24(.24 is repeating)
99x=24
x=24/99
simplest form=8/33
b)Follow the same rule.
let 0.24(4 is repeating) be x
Since there is two decimals in total , 100x=24.44(4 is repeating)
But since there is one decimal that is repeating, there will be one zero. Hence  it will become 100x-10x= 24.4(4 is repeating)-2.4(4 is repeating and get the decimal point closest to the repeating decimal)</span>
90x=22
x=22/90
Simplest form=11/45
c) 0.24 is expressed as 8/25
0.24/1
24/100(make it a whole number and add no. of zeros based on how many decimals places you move.)
Simplest form=6/25
Hope this helps you.

Tom Harding is a proofreader. He is paid $0.23 for every page he proofs. What is Tom's total pay for a week in which he proofrea
natka813 [3]
Alrighty, what I was always taught was to start by writing out what you know from the question.

What I know:
-Tom is paid $0.23 for every page of proofs.
-He proofreads 1,992 pages.

In order to figure out how much money Tom has made, we need to multiply 0.23 by 1,992. Multiplying allows us to see the total amount of money made by proofreading x amount of pages - for every page he proofreads, he makes $0.23.
0.23×1992=458.16

Therefore, Tom made $458.16.

Hope this helps!
