Question

Write the decimal as a fraction or a mixed number in simplest form. 3.44444444

Answer 1

let x = 3.444....
let 10 x = 34.44444.

then its 10x - x

this eliminates the recurring decimal

10x = 34.4444444
- x = 3.444444
-----------------------
9x = 31

divide both sides by 9

x = 31/9 or x = 3 4/9

hope this helps
