Example Question #3 : Fractions

Write as a fraction in lowest terms: $0.4\overline{8}$

Possible Answers:

$\frac{4}{9}$

$\frac{16}{33}$

$\frac{22}{45}$

$\frac{24}{49}$

$\frac{12}{25}$

Correct answer:

$\frac{22}{45}$

Explanation:

We can use algebra to find the fraction by setting $N = 0.4\overline{8}$ . Then:

$100 \cdot N = 100 \cdot 0.4888...$

100 N = 48.888...

and

$10 \cdot N = 10 \cdot 0.4888...$

10 N = 4.888...

Subtract as follows:

$\begin{matrix} \; \; \; 100N& =&48.888... \\ \underline{\; \;- 10N}& =& \underline{ \; \; 4.888...}\\ \; \; \; \; 90N&= & 44\; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \end{matrix}$

$90N \div 90= 44\div 90$

$N = \frac{44}{90} = \frac{44\div 2}{90\div 2} = \frac{22}{45}$

0.173

$0.1\overline{73}$

$0.17\overline{3}$

$0.\overline{1731}$

Correct answer:

$0.17\overline{3}$

Explanation:

Divide 13 by 75, adding a decimal point and zeroes as needed:

$13 \div 75 = 0.17333...$

The 3 repeats infinitely, so we can rewrite this as $0.17\overline{3}$ .
