The book doesn't give examples for these types of problems, please HELP!!!! This question is from textbook Mathematics Concepts and Skills
You can put this solution on YOUR website! I'm going to assume you have some concept of series. If not, repost maybe and someone else will answer. But .868686868686... is 86(10^(-2)) + 86(10(-4) + 86 (10(-6))...86(10^(-2n)). So it's a 86 times the sum from k=1 to infitnity of 10^(-2k), which converges to 1/99, so it is 86/99.
