Answer:

x= 439/999

Step-by-step explanation:

let x= 0.439439....    -> eq.1

1000x= 439.439439....    -> eq.2

eq.2-eq.1 =>   1000-x= 439.439....-0.439439...

                            999x= 439

                               x= 439/999

Answer:

[tex]\frac{29}{66}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We require 2 equations with the repeating digits 39 placed after the decimal point.

let x = 0.43939... ( multiply both sides by 10 and 1000 )

10x = 4.3939... → (1)

1000x = 439.3939... → (2)

Subtract (1) from (2) eliminating the repeating digits

990x = 435 ( divide both sides by 990 )

x = [tex]\frac{435}{990}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{29}{66}[/tex] ← in simplest form
