Answer:

[tex]\frac{214}{99}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We require to create 2 equations with the repeating digits after the decimal point. Then by subtracting them we eliminate the repeating part.

let x = 2.1616.... → (1)) ← multiply both sides by 100

100x = 216.1616..... → (2)

Subtract (1) from (2)

99x = 214 ( divide both sides by 99 )

x = [tex]\frac{214}{99}[/tex]
