The decimal 0.4583333333 can be expressed as the fraction ( \frac{11}{24} ). This is derived from recognizing that the repeating decimal part, 0.4583..., can be represented as ( \frac{11}{24} ) by converting the repeating decimal into a fraction through algebraic methods. Thus, 0.4583333333 equals ( \frac{11}{24} ).
If the decimal is terminating or repeating then it can be written as a fraction. Decimal representations which are non-terminating and non-repeating cannot be expressed as a fraction.
A decimal number is like a mixed fraction: it has an integer part and a fractional part. If the fractional part is a repeating fraction then the whole number is represented by a repeating decimal.
If that's a terminating decimal, 6464/10000 = 404/625 If that's a repeating decimal, it equals 64/99
