What is 2.26 (6 repeating) as a fraction?

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

34/15

Step-by-step explanation:

I recognized the form of this decimal as a number divided by 3. However, when I multiplied it by 3, I got 6.8. This means that the fraction was not fully simplified. Multiplying by 5, I got 34. Since I had to multiply by 3 and then by 5 to get there, I multiplied by a total of 15. Hope this helps!
