Answer 14

here is the rule, let's suppose to have this periodic number:
\[\Large 1.25\bar 4 = 1.2544444444....\]
then we can rewrite it as follows:

the periodic number is equal to a fraction, whose:
numerator is the difference between the complete number and its part which have not an overbar

denominator is composed by one 9 for each figure with a bar, and one zero for each figure before the figure with the bar, and after the decimal point
