Answer:
Should be -69 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let X equal the decimal number
Equation 1:
X=69.3333333333¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
With 10 digits in the repeating decimal group,
create a second equation by multiplying
both sides by 1010 = 10000000000
Equation 2:
10000000000X=693333333333.3333333333¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Subtract equation (1) from equation (2)
10000000000XX9999999999X===693333333333.3333333333...69.3333333333...693333333264
We get
9999999999X=693333333264
Solve for X
X=6933333332649999999999
Find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 693333333264 and 9999999999, if it exists, and reduce the fraction by dividing both numerator and denominator by GCF = 3333333333,
693333333264÷33333333339999999999÷3333333333=2083
Simplify the improper fraction,
=6913
In conclusion,
−69.3333333333¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯=−6913
