A repeating decimal, also called a recurring decimal, is a number whose decimal representation eventually becomes periodic (i.e., the same sequence of digits repeats indefinitely). The repeating portion of a decimal expansion is conventionally denoted with a vinculum so, for example,
The minimum number of digits that repeats in such a number is known as the decimal period.
Repeating decimal notation was implemented in versions of the Wolfram Language prior to 6 as PeriodicForm[RealDigits[r]] after loading the add-on package NumberTheory`ContinuedFractions`.
All rational numbers have either finite decimal expansions (i.e., are regular numbers; e.g., ) or repeating decimals (e.g., ). However, irrational numbers, such as neither terminate nor become periodic.
Numbers such as 0.5 are sometimes regarded as repeating decimals since.
Let 'x' represent the total distance from point A to point B
During the first hour he gets 0.25 of the way there: 0.25x
During the second hour he covers an additional 0.2 of the distance: 0.2x
During the third hour, he covers 0.3 of the distance: 0.3x
The total distance the biker traveled is:
0.25x + 0.2x + 0.3x = (0.25 + 0.2 + 0.3)x = 0.75x
The biker has: x - 0.75x = (1 - 0.75)x = 0.25x of the total distance left to go.
The answer is 55.75! Trust me I took a test on this and its the right one.
Hi there Maebe, since the ratio is 3:1 your answer is 96.
The ratio 3:1 is just saying Juanita has 3 times whatever Elita has. So, Elita’s 32 times 3 equals 96. :) I hope I’ve helped you. Please give me feedback if you need more help understanding!
