Math, microeconomics or criminal justice
two possible answers depending on how the problem was intended
if
y = 9.684684684
then
y = 9,684,684,684/1,000,000,000
divide numerator and denominator by 4
= 2,421,171,171/250,000,000
but it's possible/probable the problem was really
write 9.684684684.... where 684 repeats endlessly as a fraction with integer numerator & denominator
then
x = 9.684...
1000x = 9,684.684...
subtract 2nd to last equation from last equation
1000x - x = 9684-9
999x = 9675
x = 9675/999 = p/q
p = 9675
q = 999
