3.141414 = 3141414/1000000 = 1570707/500000 = 3 70707/500000

If the 14 repeats:

3.141414... = (314.141414... - 3.141414...)/(100 - 1) = 311/99 = 3 14/99

Assuming the "1414" repeats indefinitely, you solve this as follows.You write:

x = 3.141414...

and:

100x = 314.141414...

You subtract the first equation from the second, and solve the equation for "x", as a fraction.

Note that I multiplied by 100 in this case - two zeros - because the repeated pattern has two digits.

3.141414 is a fraction. It is a fraction in decimal form rather than in the form of a ratio. However, that does not stop it being a fraction. Its equivalent, in rational form, is 3.141414/1000000. You can simplify this rational fraction if required.
