8.3333333 as a fraction = 25/3

To convert 8.3333333 to a fraction:

1. Let x = 8.3333333 - equation (1)

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 1 place to the right by multiplying it by 10.

Thus,

(x = 8.3333333 ) * 10

10x = 83.333333 - equation (2)

4. Subtract Eq.(1) from Eq.(2)

10x - x = 83.333333 - 8.3333333

9x = 75

divide both sides by 9

x = 75/9 or 25/3
