Answer:

a = 4

b = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert the recurring decimals into fraction we will follow the following process.

Given recurring decimal is 0.36363636....

Let x = 0.363636......... (1)

Multiply this decimal with 100.

100x = 36.36363636...........(2)

Now subtract expression (1) from expression (2)

100x = 36.363636.......

x = 0.363636.......

99x = 36

x = $\frac{36}{99}$

x = $\frac{4}{11}$

Since, $x=\frac{a}{b}=\frac{4}{11}$

a = 4 and b = 11 will be the answer.

Let

$H \to Hoang$

$B \to Bill$

Currently:

$H = B + 7$

$H - 2 = 2 * (B -2)$

Required

H and B

We have:

$H - 2 = 2 * (B -2)$

Open bracket

$H -2 =2B - 4$

Add 2 to both sides

$H -2+2 =2B - 4+2$

$H =2B -2$

Substitute $H = B + 7$

$B + 7 =2B -2$

Collect like terms

$2B - B =7+2$

$B = 9$

Substitute $B = 9$ in $H = B + 7$

$H = B + 7$

$H = 9 + 7$

$H = 16$
