Assuming that is the rounded calculation (from a calculator) and the actual value is 1.714285714285... (with the six digits 714285 repeating forever) then:

1.714285714285... = 1 714285/999999 = 1 5/7 (as a mixed number) = 12/7 (as an improper fraction).

If it is not, then:

1.71428571429 = 1 71428571429/100000000000

Oh honey, bless your heart for asking. That decimal mess is actually 12/7 in fraction form. So next time you see that never-ending decimal, just remember it's just a fancy way of saying 12 over 7. Keep calm and fraction on!
