The bar indicates that the nos. are recurring.
x = 6.46464646 ---> (1).
100x = 646.464646 --> (2) (since the bar is given over 2 digits we have to Multiply by 100).
(2) - (1) gives.
99x = 640,
And x = 640/99.
Hope you get it.

So here simple solution that How 99 is getting.
Take x = 6.464646 ---> Eq1
Now Multiply with 100 on Both sides
100x = 646.4646464 ---> Eq2
Now subtract Eq2-Eq1.
so 99x = 640,
x = 640/99.
Take x = 6.464646 ---> Eq1
Now Multiply with 100 on Both sides
100x = 646.4646464 ---> Eq2
Now subtract Eq2-Eq1.
so 99x = 640,
x = 640/99.

6.46 RECURRING = 0.646 x10.
990 in denominator (from given importent formula),
So, 646-6 x 10 / 990 = 646/99.

@All.
I got 646/99 as answer, how can you subtract with 6, when 6 is left side of the decimal? Anyone explain the answer.

Right guys. Its a just a trick, keep it in mind that since its 2 decimal place used 99, if it is 3, than we have to take 999.

@Anji.
6+(46/99) by taking LCM.
(6*99)+46 = 594.
6+(46/99) by taking LCM.
