There's a neat trick to finding the rational form of a repeating decimal number. Take for instance [tex]x=0.123123123\ldots[/tex]. Then
[tex]x = 0.123123123\ldots \\\\ \implies 1000x = 123.123123\ldots \\\\ \implies 1000x - x = 123.123123\ldots - 0.123123\ldots \\\\ \implies 999x = 123 \\\\ \implies x = \dfrac{123}{999}[/tex]
It's easy to reverse this method to find the repeating decimal form of [tex]\frac7{11}[/tex]. Let
[tex]x = \dfrac7{11}[/tex]
Multiply the numerator and denominator by 9,
[tex]x = \dfrac{63}{99}[/tex]
It follows that
[tex]x = \dfrac{63}{99} \\\\ \implies 99x = 63 \\\\ 100x - x = 63.6363\ldots - 0.6363\ldots \\\\ \implies x = 0.636363\ldots[/tex]
The first 20 digits after the decimal are made up of 10 each of 3 and 6, so the sum is 10 × (3 + 6) = 90.
Answer:
90
Step-by-step explanation:
Using long division, we find that Every group of two digits after the decimal point has a sum of 9 so the sum of the first 20 digits after the decimal point is 10*9=90
