This document provides an example of how to write a recurring decimal as a fraction. It shows y = 7.3474747... written as y = 7 + 0.3474747..., with the repeating portion in a box. It then solves for y by writing the repeating portion as a fraction (3474747/990), adding that to 7, and obtaining the final value of y = 990/7274.
