What is negative 0.083 (repeating) as a fraction

X = - 0.083 ... as fraction.

=> x = - 0.083 ...

=> Let 10x = - 0.83

Therefore, 10x and x = - 8.3 ... and - 0.083 ...

Now let’s subtract both number

=> 9x = - 7.47 (let’s round off - 7.47 to 7.5)

=> 9x = - 7.5 (fraction of - 7.5 = - 15/2)

=> 9x = 15/2

=> x = 16/18

=> therefore x = 16/18 or 5/6
