Given:

The repeating decimal is 8.27272...

Formula used:

Let x = repeating decimal, then manipulate the equation to eliminate the repeating part.

Calculation:

Let x = 8.27272...

⇒ 100x = 827.27272... (Multiply by 100 to shift the repeating part)

⇒ 100x - x = 827.27272... - 8.27272... (Subtract to remove the repeating part)

⇒ 99x = 819

⇒ x = 819 / 99

⇒ x = 91 / 11

∴ The correct answer is option (4).
