Hi all, from my understanding, the conversion to a fraction is actually used for non-terminating recurring decimals, however, that is not the case here, all are terminating decimals, we can convert them only like, 0.67 = 67/100.

Guys i've found a simple method.
u can covert it like x=.1667 and 10x=1.667=>9x=1.5003 so x=1/6
similarly for y=0.6667=> y=2/3
and 0.8883=1-0.1667=>1-1/6=5/6
now it's easy method to solve this problem.
hope,it will help u to solve this problem.
