2. Write the mixed repeating (recurring) decimal number as an improper fraction.

  • 1.0472440946 can be written as an improper fraction.

  • The numerator is larger than or equal to the denominator.

Set up the first equation.

  • Let y equal the decimal number:

  • y = 1.0472440946


Set up the second equation.

  • Number of decimal places repeating: 9

  • Multiply both sides of the first equation by 109 = 1,000,000,000


y = 1.0472440946

1,000,000,000 × y = 1,000,000,000 × 1.0472440946

1,000,000,000 × y = 1,047,244,094.6472440946


Subtract the first equation from the second one.

  • Having the same number of decimal places ...
  • The repeating pattern drops off by subtracting the two equations.

1,000,000,000 × y - y = 1,047,244,094.6472440946 - 1.0472440946 ⇒

(1,000,000,000 - 1) × y = 1,047,244,094.6472440946 - 1.0472440946 ⇒

We now have a new equation:

999,999,999 × y = 1,047,244,093.6


Solve for y in the new equation.

999,999,999 × y = 1,047,244,093.6 ⇒

y = 1,047,244,093.6/999,999,999

Let the result written as a fraction.



Now we can write the number as a fraction.

According to our first equation:

y = 1.0472440946

According to our calculations:

y = 1,047,244,093.6/999,999,999

⇒ 1.0472440946 = 1,047,244,093.6/999,999,999


Get rid of the decimal places in the fraction above.

  • Multiply the top and the bottom number by 10.
  • 1 followed by as many 0-s as the number of digits after the decimal point.

1.0472440946 = (1,047,244,093.6 × 10)/(999,999,999 × 10)

1.0472440946 = 10,472,440,936/9,999,999,990
