Oh, what a happy little question! When we see a repeating decimal like 1.142857, we can turn it into a fraction by noting that the repeating part is 142857. To convert this to a fraction, we put this repeating part over a series of nines equal to the number of repeating digits, which gives us 142857/999999. And just like that, we've turned our repeating decimal into a lovely fraction.
