First find the length of the repeating section of numbers. eg. For 0.678678678, 678 is the repeating section, and it's length is three. Divide this repeating section by the number with that many nines - for example in this case 678/999 = the fraction. Another example - 0.554755475547 = 5547/9999

How do you convert 22.3333333 into a fraction?
This depends on whether the the number is a repeating decimal. If the decimal repeats, find the fraction that is associated with the repeating decimal, in this case, 1/3. Then, if you want a common fraction instead of a mixed number, multiply 22 by the denominator and add it to the numerator to get 67/3. If the decimal does not repeat, try putting 223333333 over 10000000 and simplify it.
