Answer:

[tex]\frac{29}{110}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We require 2 equations with the repeating 63 placed after the decimal point

let x = 0.2636363.... ( multiply both sides by 10 and 1000 )

10x = 2.6363... → (1)

1000x = 263.6363.... → (2)

Subtracting (1) from (2) eliminates the repeating value, that is

990x = 261 ( divide both sides by 990 )

x = [tex]\frac{261}{990}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{29}{110}[/tex] ← in simplest form
