Answer:

5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:

We first let 0.83 (3 being repeated) be  

x

.

Since  

x

is recurring in 1 decimal places, we multiply it by 10.

10

x

=

8.33

Next, we subtract them.

10

x

−

x

=

8.33

−

0.83

9

x

=

7.5

Lastly, we divide both sides by 9 to get  

x

as a fraction.

x

=

7.5

9

=

75

90

=

5
