Answer:

[tex]\frac{7}{11}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We require 2 equations with the repeating digits (63) placed after the decimal point.

let x = 0.636363..... (1) multiply both sides by 100

100x = 63.6363... (2)

Subtract (1) from (2) thus eliminating the repeating digits

99x = 63 ( divide both sides by 99 )

x = [tex]\frac{63}{99}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{7}{11}[/tex] ← in simplest form
