Multiply 3/5*35. Numerator * numerator, denominator*denominator. Simplify before multiply.
And. 28
3.88888=3.88888/1=38.8888888
so lets ssay our repeating decimal = a fraction x
x=3.888 is true
multiply by 10
10x=38.8888
now subtract fir frist eqation from second
10x-x=38.8888-3.888888
9x=35
divide both sides by 9
x=35/9
x=3 and 7/9
anser is 3.88=3 and 7/9
Answer:
see the explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
0.888...
This is a <u>repeating decimal</u> (Is a decimal that has a digit, or a block of digits, that repeat over and over and over again without ever ending)
Convert to fraction number
Let
x=0.888...
10x=8.888...
Subtract 0.888... from 8.888... to remove the decimal
10x-x=8.888...-0.888...
9x=8
Solve for x
x=8/9
therefore
Mike fraction is incorrect
because 4/5=0.8
0.8 is a <u>terminating decimal </u>(It's a decimal with a finite number of digits)
Mike's mistake was considering the number as a terminating decimal instead of a repeating decimal
Beth is correct
because
If you divide 8/9
the result is 0.8888888...
