How do you write a repeating decimal into a fraction?Writing Decimals as Fractions
Let me first introduce the shortcutIF and ONLY IF the bar notation is
COMPLETELY over ALL of the numbers after the decimal, you can use this shortcut.

DISCUSS: Do you notice a pattern?
Put all of the digits under bar notation in a fraction with the equal number of 9’s

Writing Decimals as FractionsNow for the rationale
17.0Let’s use algebra to find the fraction of
Let’s assign a variable 17.0n
Multiply both sides by 100 17.17100 nSubtract both sides by n nnn 17.17100
Substitute 17.017.17100 nn17.0n
Simplify 1799 n
Divide both sides by 99 99
