Answer:
The repeating decimal is 85/99 = 0.858585...

A rational number in the form of a fraction can be represented as a decimal by dividing the numerator by the denominator. For example, this is how we get 0.75 = 3/4: (first screenshot)
Now let's divide 85.0000... by 99. Find enough decimal digits in the numerator so we can see whether the decimal terminates or starts to repeat. (second screenshot) Since the number 850 repeats itself, this is a repeating decimal.
