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

  • 111.681 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 = 111.681


Set up the second equation.

  • Number of decimal places repeating: 2

  • Multiply both sides of the first equation by 102 = 100


y = 111.681

100 × y = 100 × 111.681

100 × y = 11,168.181


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.

100 × y - y = 11,168.181 - 111.681 ⇒

(100 - 1) × y = 11,168.181 - 111.681 ⇒

We now have a new equation:

99 × y = 11,056.5


Solve for y in the new equation.

99 × y = 11,056.5 ⇒

y = 11,056.5/99

Let the result written as a fraction.



Now we can write the number as a fraction.

According to our first equation:

y = 111.681

According to our calculations:

y = 11,056.5/99

⇒ 111.681 = 11,056.5/99


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.

111.681 = (11,056.5 × 10)/(99 × 10)

111.681 = 110,565/990


3. Reduce (simplify) the fraction above:
110,565/990
to the lowest terms, to its simplest equivalent form, irreducible.

To reduce a fraction to the lowest terms divide the numerator and denominator by their greatest (highest) common factor (divisor), GCF.


Factor the numerator and denominator (prime factorization).

110,565 = 35 × 5 × 7 × 13

990 = 2 × 32 × 5 × 11

Calculate the greatest (highest) common factor (divisor), GCF.

Multiply all the common prime factors by the lowest exponents.

GCF (35 × 5 × 7 × 13; 2 × 32 × 5 × 11) = 32 × 5


» Calculate the greatest (highest) common factor (divisor), GCF, online calculator


Divide both the numerator and the denominator by their GCF.

110,565/990 =

(35 × 5 × 7 × 13)/(2 × 32 × 5 × 11) =

((35 × 5 × 7 × 13) ÷ (32 × 5)) / ((2 × 32 × 5 × 11) ÷ (32 × 5)) =

(33 × 7 × 13)/(2 × 11) =

2,457/22


4. The fraction is an improper one, rewrite it as a mixed number (mixed fraction):

  • A mixed number = an integer number and a proper fraction, of the same sign.
  • Example 1: 2 1/5; Example 2: - 1 3/7.
  • A proper fraction = the numerator is smaller than the denominator.

2,457 ÷ 22 = 111, remainder = 15 ⇒

2,457 = 111 × 22 + 15 ⇒

2,457/22 =

(111 × 22 + 15) / 22 =

(111 × 22) / 22 + 15/22 =

111 + 15/22 =

111 15/22


2,457/22 ~ Equivalent fractions.

  • The above fraction cannot be reduced.
  • That is, it has the smallest possible numerator and denominator.
