اس ڈیک کے بارے میں

Practice recurring decimals to fractions with 46 English flashcards on repeating blocks, decimal shifts, and exact answers. This deck is for secondary-school and adult learners who can simplify fractions and solve a simple linear equation. For basic conversions, use the fractions, decimals, and percentages flashcards.

Most cards ask you to convert a specified recurring decimal into a simplified fraction, choose a multiplier or matching pair of shifts, or correct one algebra mistake. Four reverse cards ask for the repeating decimal of a given fraction, providing a short check on the forward method. Parentheses on a prompt mark digits that repeat forever; every prompt using them states that convention. An overline on an answer marks the repeating block.

The sequence starts with notation and one-digit repetition, then introduces two- and three-digit blocks, leading zeros, and the reason subtraction cancels matching tails. Mixed recurring decimals add one or two non-repeating places. Later cards include values above one, selected reverse checks, simplification errors, and exactness checks, including recurring nines. Related recall variants are separated. Every card carries the recurring-decimals tag; the review scheduler supplies longer-term spacing.

This is focused algebra practice, not a conversion lookup table or a full long-division course. Exhaustive reverse conversions are excluded because a few checks give useful feedback without doubling every exercise. Percentages, general fraction arithmetic, negative values, long repeating periods, financial or dosage examples, geometric-series proofs, and advanced number theory are outside scope. No full-course or examination alignment is claimed.

The questions, answers, sequence, and metadata were written independently with AI assistance. Examples were derived using exact rational arithmetic and reviewed for their repetition boundaries and algebra. General notation and conversion principles were cross-checked against Repeating decimal; source wording and exercises were not copied.

    سوال

    Convert 0.(5) to a fraction in simplest form (parentheses repeat).

    جواب

    59\frac{5}{9}. With x=0.5‾x=0.\overline{5}, subtracting xx from 10x10x gives 9x=59x=5.

  4. کارڈ 4

    سوال

    Why can subtracting two shifted recurring decimals remove all digits after the decimal point?

    جواب

    Their entire fractional parts are equal, so their difference is zero. Match both the repeating block and its starting position before subtracting.

    سوال

    Convert 0.4(2) to a fraction in simplest form (parentheses repeat).

    جواب

    1945\frac{19}{45}. With x=0.42‾x=0.4\overline{2}, 100x−10x=42−4=38100x-10x=42-4=38, so x=3890=1945x=\frac{38}{90}=\frac{19}{45}.

  12. کارڈ 12

    سوال

    A learner writes 0.(06) as 6/9 (parentheses repeat). What denominator should replace 9 before simplification?

    جواب

    9999. The repeating block is 06, which has two places. Thus 0.06‾=6990.\overline{06}=\frac{6}{99}, not 69\frac{6}{9}.

  13. کارڈ 13

    سوال

    Convert 0.(125) to a fraction in simplest form (parentheses repeat).

    جواب

    125999\frac{125}{999}. Subtraction gives 999x=125999x=125. This fraction is already in simplest form.

  14. کارڈ 14

    سوال

    A decimal has one non-repeating digit after the point followed by a two-digit repeating block. What denominator does the standard shift-subtract method give before simplification?

    جواب

    990990. Use 1000x−10x1000x-10x, so the coefficient of xx is 1000−10=9901000-10=990.

  15. کارڈ 15

    سوال

    Convert 0.7(36) to a fraction in simplest form (parentheses repeat).

    جواب

    81110\frac{81}{110}. The matching-tail subtraction is 1000x−10x=736−7=7291000x-10x=736-7=729. Thus x=729990=81110x=\frac{729}{990}=\frac{81}{110}.

  16. کارڈ 16

    سوال

    Write 511\frac{5}{11} as a decimal, marking the shortest repeating block.

    0.45‾0.\overline{45}: the block 45 repeats. Check that 4599=511\frac{45}{99}=\frac{5}{11}.

  17. کارڈ 17

    سوال

    Convert 0.08(3) to a fraction in simplest form (parentheses repeat).

    جواب

    112\frac{1}{12}. Two non-repeating places require 1000x−100x=83−8=751000x-100x=83-8=75. Hence x=75900=112x=\frac{75}{900}=\frac{1}{12}.

  18. کارڈ 18

    سوال

    In 0.6(12), a learner says the repeating block is 612 (parentheses repeat). What is the correct block?

    سوال

    Convert 0.2(09) to a fraction in simplest form (parentheses repeat).

    جواب

    23110\frac{23}{110}. Keep the zero in the two-digit block: 1000x−10x=209−2=2071000x-10x=209-2=207, so x=207990=23110x=\frac{207}{990}=\frac{23}{110}.

  20. کارڈ 20

    سوال

    For a repeating block of mm digits starting immediately after the decimal point, what coefficient of xx results from 10mx−x10^m x-x?

    جواب

    10m−110^m-1. This is a string of mm nines, the denominator before simplifying the resulting fraction.

  21. کارڈ 21

    سوال

    Convert 0.(315) to a fraction in simplest form (parentheses repeat).

    جواب

    35111\frac{35}{111}. Subtraction gives 999x=315999x=315, so x=315999=35111x=\frac{315}{999}=\frac{35}{111}.

  22. کارڈ 22

    سوال

    For x=0.24(7)x=0.24(7) (parentheses repeat), what equation remains after subtracting 100x100x from 1000x1000x?

    جواب

    900x=223900x=223. The tails match in 247.7‾−24.7‾247.\overline{7}-24.\overline{7}, leaving 247−24=223247-24=223.

    سوال

    Convert 0.6(4) to a fraction in simplest form (parentheses repeat).

    جواب

    2945\frac{29}{45}. Subtract to get 100x−10x=64−6=58100x-10x=64-6=58, then simplify 5890\frac{58}{90} to 2945\frac{29}{45}.

  24. کارڈ 24

    سوال

    For x=0.(58)x=0.(58) (parentheses repeat), a learner uses 10x−x10x-x to cancel the recurring tail. Which smallest power of ten greater than 10 should multiply xx instead?

    جواب

    100100. The fractional tails of 10x=5.85‾10x=5.\overline{85} and x=0.58‾x=0.\overline{58} do not match; 100x=58.58‾100x=58.\overline{58} fixes that.

  25. کارڈ 25

    سوال

    Convert 0.03(18) to a fraction in simplest form (parentheses repeat).

    جواب

    7220\frac{7}{220}. Use 10000x−100x=318−3=31510000x-100x=318-3=315, so x=3159900=7220x=\frac{315}{9900}=\frac{7}{220}.

  27. کارڈ 27

    سوال

    Convert 2.(4) to a fraction in simplest form (parentheses repeat).

    جواب

    229\frac{22}{9}. With x=2.4‾x=2.\overline{4}, 10x−x=24.4‾−2.4‾=2210x-x=24.\overline{4}-2.\overline{4}=22.

  28. کارڈ 28

    سوال

    For x=0.5(27)x=0.5(27) (parentheses repeat), what integer remains on the right of 1000x−10x1000x-10x?

    جواب

    522522. Subtract 527.27‾−5.27‾527.\overline{27}-5.\overline{27}, so the integer difference is 527−5=522527-5=522.

  29. کارڈ 29

    سوال

    Convert 0.(018) to a fraction in simplest form (parentheses repeat).

    جواب

    2111\frac{2}{111}. The three-digit block gives 999x=18999x=18, so x=18999=2111x=\frac{18}{999}=\frac{2}{111}.

  30. کارڈ 30

    سوال

    A learner replaces 0.(62) with 0.62 before finding its exact fraction (parentheses repeat). What exact fraction should they use?

    جواب

    6299\frac{62}{99}. The finite value 0.62 equals 62100\frac{62}{100} and loses the repeating tail. Keep the decimal exact until the algebra is complete.

  31. کارڈ 31

    سوال

    Convert 1.2(7) to a fraction in simplest form (parentheses repeat).

    جواب

    2318\frac{23}{18}. Use 100x−10x=127−12=115100x-10x=127-12=115, giving x=11590=2318x=\frac{115}{90}=\frac{23}{18}.

  32. کارڈ 32

    سوال

    Convert 0.41(06) to a fraction in simplest form (parentheses repeat).

    جواب

    271660\frac{271}{660}. Use 10000x−100x=4106−41=406510000x-100x=4106-41=4065, so x=40659900=271660x=\frac{4065}{9900}=\frac{271}{660}.

  33. کارڈ 33

    سوال

    A learner converts 0.(63) to 63/99 but is asked for simplest form (parentheses repeat). What should the final fraction be?

    جواب

    711\frac{7}{11}. Divide both 63 and 99 by their greatest common divisor, 9.

  34. کارڈ 34

    سوال

    A decimal has two non-repeating digits after the point and a three-digit repeating block. What denominator does the standard shift-subtract method give before simplification?

    جواب

    9990099900. Use 100000x−100x100000x-100x, giving 100000−100=99900100000-100=99900. There are three nines followed by two zeros.

  35. کارڈ 35

    سوال

    Convert 0.05(2) to a fraction in simplest form (parentheses repeat).

    جواب

    47900\frac{47}{900}. Use 1000x−100x=52−5=471000x-100x=52-5=47. The leading zero still counts as a non-repeating decimal place.

  36. کارڈ 36

    سوال

    Write 1333\frac{13}{33} as a decimal, marking the shortest repeating block.

    جواب

    0.39‾0.\overline{39}: the block 39 repeats. Check by scaling to 3999\frac{39}{99}.

  37. کارڈ 37

    سوال

    For 0.(002), how many digits must be counted in the repeating block when choosing a power of ten (parentheses repeat)?

    جواب

    Three digits, including both zeros. Multiplying by 10001000 aligns a complete block; the fraction is 2999\frac{2}{999}.

  38. کارڈ 38

    سوال

    Convert 3.0(81) to a fraction in simplest form (parentheses repeat).

    جواب

    339110\frac{339}{110}. Use 1000x−10x=3081−30=30511000x-10x=3081-30=3051, so x=3051990=339110x=\frac{3051}{990}=\frac{339}{110}.

  39. کارڈ 39

    سوال

    What exact value equals 0.(9), where the 9 repeats forever?

    جواب

    11. With x=0.9‾x=0.\overline{9}, 10x−x=910x-x=9, so 9x=99x=9 and x=1x=1. This is equality, not rounding.

  40. کارڈ 40

    سوال

    Convert 0.18(24) to a fraction in simplest form (parentheses repeat).

    جواب

    3011650\frac{301}{1650}. Use 10000x−100x=1824−18=180610000x-100x=1824-18=1806, then simplify 18069900\frac{1806}{9900} by 6.

  41. کارڈ 41

    سوال

    Do 0.(23) and 0.(2323) represent the same value (parentheses repeat)?

    جواب

    Yes. Both repeat the same digits forever; the shortest block is 23. Using either block length gives an equivalent fraction.

  42. کارڈ 42

    سوال

    Convert 0.9(14) to a fraction in simplest form (parentheses repeat).

    جواب

    181198\frac{181}{198}. Use 1000x−10x=914−9=9051000x-10x=914-9=905, so x=905990=181198x=\frac{905}{990}=\frac{181}{198}.

  43. کارڈ 43

    سوال

    Why does the shift-subtract method show that every recurring decimal is rational?

    جواب

    It produces an equation Nx=MNx=M with integers MM and nonzero NN, so x=MNx=\frac{M}{N}. Matching tails make MM an integer; the two different powers of ten make NN nonzero.

  44. کارڈ 44

    سوال

    A learner aligns repeating tails, then writes 1000x−10x=1010x1000x-10x=1010x. What should replace 1010x1010x?

    جواب

    990x990x. Subtract the coefficients: 1000−10=9901000-10=990. Matching the tails does not change the subtraction on the left.

  45. کارڈ 45

    سوال

    Convert 0.07(05) to a fraction in simplest form (parentheses repeat).

    جواب

    3494950\frac{349}{4950}. Two prefix places and two block places give 10000x−100x=705−7=69810000x-100x=705-7=698, so x=6989900=3494950x=\frac{698}{9900}=\frac{349}{4950}.

  46. کارڈ 46

    سوال

    Write 1118\frac{11}{18} as a decimal, marking the shortest repeating block.

    جواب

    0.61‾0.6\overline{1}: only the 1 repeats. Check that 61−690=5590=1118\frac{61-6}{90}=\frac{55}{90}=\frac{11}{18}.
