Short Answer

Expert verified

The simplest form is=1399.

Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Interpret the notation.

0.13¯ means 0.131313…..

02

Step 2. Assign a variable.

Let N = 0.131313…...

03

Step 3. Decide by what to multiply.

Since two digits repeat so we multiply each side by 100.

100N = 100(0.131313…..)

100N = 13.131313…..

04

Step 4. Solve for N.

Subtract N from 100N, so that the repeating part eliminates.

100N=13.131313….-N=0.131313….99N=13

Then divide each side by 99 and simplify.

99N99=1399

N=1399
