Explanation:

Using the notation of a bar over a set of digits to denote their infinite repetition,

let  

x

=

3

.

¯

2

⇒

10

x

=

32

.

⇒

x

∴

x

This technique works in general. Set  

x

as your desired value, multiply by  

10

n

where  

n

is the number of digits repeating, and then subtract  

x

to eliminate the infinitely repeating portion. It then is just a matter of dividing by  

10

n

Step-by-step explanation:

the answer is:

the answer is:

to solve the problem, we need to remember the quotient of power property, it's defined by the following relation:

if we have a quotienf of powers that have the same base, we need to keep the same base and subtract the exponent of the denominator power to the exponent of the numerator power.

so, we are given the expression:

then, calculating we have:

hence, the answer is:

have a nice day!
