Answer:

[tex]\frac{133}{66}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we require 2 equations with the repeating digits placed after the decimal point.

let x = 2.01515... ( multiply both sides by 10 and 1000 )

10x = 20.1515.... (1)

1000x = 2015.1515... (2)

subtract (1) from (2) thus eliminating the repeating digits

990x = 1995 ( divide both sides by 990 )

x = [tex]\frac{1995}{990}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{133}{66}[/tex] ← in simplest form
