What is 0.5 repeating as a fraction in simplest form

Mathematics
1 answer:
Solnce55 [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

5/9

Step-by-step explanation:

Start be letting x = 0.555...

Our original equation is:

x = 0.555...

There is only one digit repeating, the 5, so we multiply both sides of that equation by 10 and write it above the original equation.

10x = 5.555...

   x = 0.555...

Now we subtract the second equation from the first equation as written above.

9x = 5

Divide both sides by 9.

x = 5/9

0.555... = 5/9

Prime number is a whole number greater than 1 whose only factors are 1 and itself. A factor is a whole number that can be divided evenly into another number. The first few prime numbers are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19
In this problem there's 9 prime numbers out of 20 so our probably is 9/20 because you have nine chances of geting a prime out of 20 balls total.
