I just learned a short time ago how to convert a repeating decimal to a fraction.
-- Take the repeating part of the decimal. In this one, it's '764' .
-- Make a fraction out of it by writing it over the same number of 9s.
The fraction here is 764/999 .
-- Simplify it if possible and if you feel like it.
764/999 can't be simplified. (I think.)
So the rational expressions for this decimal are
(5 and 764/999) or 5759/999 .
Please give the equation.
Answer:
B) 12.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Find amount spent on clothes in July
$2800 * 8% = j
<em>j = $224</em>
2. Find amount spent of clothes in August
$224 + $126 = a
<em>a = $350</em>
3. Find the amount's percentage of the total
$350/$2800 = x
x = 0.125 = 12.5%
