Answer :
Answer:
146/45
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the value of the number of interest. Then we can do the following math to find its representation as a fraction.
[tex]x=3.2\overline{4}\\10x=32.4\overline{4}\\10x-x=9x=32.4\overline{4}-3.2\overline{4}=29.2\\\\x=\dfrac{29.2}{9}=\boxed{\dfrac{146}{45}}[/tex]

Comment on procedure
The power of 10 that we multiply by (10x) is the number of repeated digits. Here, there is a 1-digit repeat, so we multiply by 10^1. If there were a 2-digit repeat, we would compute 10^2x -x = 99x to rationalize the number.
