0.232323.. * 100 = 23.232323.. 0.232323.. * 1 = 0.232323.. 0.232323.. * 99 = 23 so 0.232323.. = 23/99

do you follow that ok? the third line is obtained by subtraction

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ 23 }{ 99 }\]is correct. Why was the question bumped?

OpenStudy (ammarah):

is there a better way to explain this?

OpenStudy (ammarah):

like di multiply by .1 or something?
