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.

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