    Say x = 0.77--

    Then 10x = 7.7--

    Then 10x - x = 7 = > 9x=7 = > x=7/9

    Say x = 2.3-

    10x = 23.3-

    10x-x = 9x = 21 = > x = 21/9

    last one is a bit tougher because it has alternating digits

    Say x = 1.013--

    100x = 101.313--

    100x-x = 99x = 100.3 = x = 1003/990

    I multiplied the final fraction with 10 to get integers.
