#0.090-9-0909...=1/11# #0.88888...=8/9#
#0.06060606...=2/33#

(i) Let x =0.090909. Then,

100x=9.090909...=9+.090909...=9+x, So,.

99x=9, and so, $x = \frac{9}{99} = \frac{1}{11}$ $x =9/99=1/11$ .

(ii) Let y = 0.8888..... Then,

10x=8.888...=8+x. So,

9x=8, and so, $x = \frac{8}{9}$ $x = 8/9$ .

(iii) let z = 0.06060606... Then,

100x=6.060606...=6+x. So,

99x=6. And so, $x = \frac{6}{99} = \frac{2}{33}$ $x = 6/99=2/33$ .
