X= 0.045
prove algebraically that x can be written as 1/22

The least decimal place in 0.045 is found in the thousandths place. Thus, if expressed as a fraction, it would be 45/1000. Let's substitute this to the equation:

x = 45/1000
1000x = 45
(1000/45)x = 1
 
When you divide 1000 by 45, the quotient would be 22.2222222... This could be round to the nearest whole number which is 22. Then,

22x = 1
x = 1/22
