Hello,

Our lessons is being even harder.Not so, though.

Okay.

I want to ask if my mathematical solution was correct. I am not going to post the whole mathematical notation. So, just the answer. I hope, I am correct.

Terminating decimal to a fraction first.

346.435 = $$\frac{346435}{1000}$$

Repeating decimal to a fraction, for the second.
$$0.000^{346}$$
Please, the 346 number has a bar line on top, indicating it as a repeating fraction.

Therefore, my answer is, $$\frac{346}{999000}$$

The way to input a bar in Latex is
Rich (BB code):
0.000\bar{346}
and it gives you this:
$$0.000\bar{346}$$

math question.!!!
MY SOLUTIOn.
346.435=
$$346\frac{435}{1000}=3\frac{1000(346)+435}={1000\frac{346000+435}{1000}3\frac{346435}{1000}$$

is it correct

Err, you might want to check your result. It seems that you messed your Latex up and the result is unreadable. Write it in plain one-line equation if you have trouble with Latex.

$$346\frac{435}{1000}=\frac {1000(346)+435}{1000}=\frac{346000+435}{1000}= \frac{346435}{1000}$$
