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

800.5005 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 = 800.5005


Set up the second equation.

Number of decimal places repeating: 4

Multiply both sides of the first equation by 104 = 10,000


y = 800.5005


10,000 × y = 10,000 × 800.5005


10,000 × y = 8,005,005.5005


Subtract the first equation from the second equation.

Having the same number of decimal places ...

The repeating pattern drops off by subtracting the two equations.


10,000 × y - y = 8,005,005.5005 - 800.5005 =>


(10,000 - 1) × y = 8,005,005.5005 - 800.5005 =>


We now have a new equation:


9,999 × y = 8,004,205


Solve for y in the new equation.

9,999 × y = 8,004,205 =>


y = 8,004,205/9,999


Let the result written as a fraction.



Write the number as a fraction.

According to our first equation:

y = 800.5005


According to our calculations:

y = 8,004,205/9,999


=> 800.5005 = 8,004,205/9,999


3. Reduce (simplify) the fraction above: 8,004,205/9,999
(to the lowest terms, to its simplest equivalent form, irreducible).

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


Factor both the numerator and the denominator (prime factorization).

In exponential notation (an):


8,004,205 = 5 × 11 × 145,531


9,999 = 32 × 11 × 101



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

Multiply all the common prime factors by the lowest exponents.

GCF (5 × 11 × 145,531; 32 × 11 × 101) = 11



Divide both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common factor, GCF.

8,004,205/9,999 =


(5 × 11 × 145,531)/(32 × 11 × 101) =


((5 × 11 × 145,531) ÷ 11) / ((32 × 11 × 101) ÷ 11) =


(5 × 145,531)/(32 × 101) =


727,655/909


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.


727,655 ÷ 909 = 800, remainder = 455 =>


727,655 = 800 × 909 + 455 =>


727,655/909 =


(800 × 909 + 455) / 909 =


(800 × 909) / 909 + 455/909 =


800 + 455/909 =


800 455/909


727,655/909: Equivalent fractions.

The above fraction cannot be reduced.


That is, it has the smallest possible numerator and denominator.


By expanding it we can build up equivalent fractions.


Multiply the numerator & the denominator by the same number.


Example 1. By expanding the fraction by 2:

727,655/909 = (727,655 × 2)/(909 × 2) = 1,455,310/1,818

Example 2. By expanding the fraction by 3:

727,655/909 = (727,655 × 3)/(909 × 3) = 2,182,965/2,727

Of course, the above fractions are reducing...


... to the initial fraction: 727,655/909
