Answer: The fraction 301/900
Note: I'm assuming the 4's continue on forever

==============================================

Work Shown:

I'm going to assume that the 4s go on forever. I'll represent this with three dots after the last 4 like so
0.334444...

Now let x = 0.334444...

Multiply both sides by 100
x = 0.334444...
100x = 100*(0.334444...)
100x = 33.444444...

And repeat with 1000
x = 0.334444...
1000x = 1000*(0.334444...)
1000x = 334.444444...

Then subtract and solve for x. Notice how the decimal parts line up and cancel
1000x-100x = (334.444444...) - (33.444444...)
1000x-100x = (334+0.444444...) - (33+0.444444...)
1000x-100x = 334+0.444444... - 33 - 0.444444...
1000x-100x = (334-33)+(0.444444... - 0.444444...)
900x = 334 - 33
900x = 301
x = 301/900

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Question says that it uses 120 feet of fencing material to enclose three sides of the play area. This means there are 3 sides. Putting this into equation, we have something like this.

120 = L + 2W

Where

LW = area.

Again, in order to maximize the area with the given fencing, from the equation written above, then Width, w must be = 30 feet and length, l must be = 60

On substituting, we have

A = LW = (120 - 2W) W

From the first equation, making L the subject of the formula, we have this

L = 120 - 2W, which then we substituted above.

On simplification, we have

L = 120W -2W²

Differentiating, we have

A' = 120 - 4W = 0

Remember that W = 30

So therefore, L = 120 - 2(30) = 60 feet
