1. Let x = -0.583333333
2. The repeating digit is 3
3. Place the repeating digit to the left of the decimal point.
In this case, move the decimal point 3 places to the right by multiplying it by 1000.
Thus,
(x = -0.583333333) * 1000
1000x = -583.333333 - equation (1)
4. Place the repeating digit to the right of the decimal point.
In this case, move the decimal point 2 places to the right.
Thus,
(x = -0.583333333) * 100
100x = -58.3333333 - equation (2)
5. Subtract Eq.(2) from Eq.(1)
1000 x - 100x = -583.333333 - (-58.3333333)
900x = -583.333333 + 58.3333333)
900x = -525
divide both sides by 900
x = -525/900 or -7/12
