The decimal expansion of 0.31717 is an infinite number with the 17 repeating.

Let the given decimal = X, so we have X = 0.31717 ( 1st equation)

Multiply both sides by 100 to get:
100x = 31.717 ( 2nd equation)

Subtract the 1st equation from the 2nd equation:

100x = 31.1717 - x = 0.31717 = 99x = 31.4

Divide both sides by 99:
X = 31.4 / 99

Multiply both numbers by 10 to remove the decimal point:
X = 314 / 990

Divide both numbers by 2 to get the final answer of 157 / 495

The answer is B.

The sum of the speeds two trains is 717.6 miles per hour. If the speed of the first train is 6.4 mph faster than that of the sec
damaskus [11]

Train 1 = x + 6.4

Train 2 = x

(x) + (x + 6.4) = 717.6

2x + 6.4 = 717.6

2x = 711.2

x = 355.6

Train 1 = 355.6 + 6.4 = 362 mph

Train 2 = 355.6 mph
