Answer 3

Somebody asked a very similar question recently, so I will be referencing the work done on this question: https://questioncove.com/study#/updates/5f58f1cc502b10f33253ac00

since yours is 8.132132.... rather than 11.4242, there are some key differences

- instead of rewriting the problem as 11 + 0.4242... you'll re-write the problem as 8 + 0.132132... etc. and set x = 0.132132
- since your repeating digits are 3 digits (0.132) rather than 2 digits (0.42) you'll use 1000x = 132.132132... and subtract 1000x - x to convert x to a fraction

let me know if you have any additional questions or clarifications
