Evaluate the following repeating decimal

8.32

Evaluate the repeated piece

The repeated piece 32 has a length of 2

Therefore, we setup two equations

Equation 1: x = 8.32

Equation 2: 100x = 102 100x 8.32
100x = 100 x 8.32
100x = 832

Subtract equations

Therefore, we have 100x - x = 832 - 8.32

99x = 832

Divide each side by 99

x  =  832
  99

Final Answer

832/99
