How can the decimal 1.245 repeating be written as a quotient of two integers?

Answer:

1244/999

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have 1.245245245245.... which we call x.

If we times this by 1000 (because 3 digits repeat) we get

1000x = 1245.245245245....

Subtract x from both sides:

999x = 1245.245245245... - 1.245245... = 1244

This means that x = 1244/999

This fraction cannot be simplified so this is the answer.

If you want to include the 1 in the repeating (1.2451245...) do the same but the sequence is 4 digits so times by 10000 instead.
