Solution

0.6+0.4¯7+0.¯7 in pq form.

0.6=610

Let x=0.4¯7(1)

Multiplying by 100

100x=47.¯7(2)

substract (2)(1)

100xx=47.¯70.4¯7

99x=47.3

x=47.399

Let y=0.¯7(3)

Multiplying by 10

10y=7.¯7(4)

(4)(3)

10yy=7.¯70.¯7

9y=7

y=79

Now, 0.6+0.4¯7+0.¯7=610+47.399+79

The LCM is 990

610+47.399+79=610×9999+47.399×1010+79×110110

594990+473990+770990

594+473+770990=1837990
