ok then... repeating fractions:

23/99 is 0.23232323232323232323232323232323232323232323232323232323...

can you see the pattern? Remember too that some of these fractions may simplify, so that 

45/99, which is 0.45454545454545454545454545454545 simplifies to 5/11.


So: 0.88888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888... is? :-)
