Conversion Formula
The formula to convert 0.12 repeat to grams involves first expressing the repeating decimal as a fraction. 0.12 repeat equals 0.121212…, which is a geometric series. This series sums to 4/33. To get grams, multiply the repeat value by 33/4, converting the decimal to grams. For example, 0.12 repeat times 33/4: (0.12 * 33) / 4 = 1.2 g. This method ensures precise conversion from repeating decimals to weight units.
Conversion Example
- Convert 0.25 repeat to grams:
- Express as a fraction: 0.25 repeat = 0.252525… = 25/99.
- Multiply by 99/25: (0.25 * 99) / 25 = 2.475 g.
- Convert 0.1 repeat to grams:
- 0.1 repeat = 0.1111… = 1/9.
- Multiply by 9: (0.1 * 9) = 0.9 g.
- Convert 0.33 repeat to grams:
- 0.33 repeat = 0.3333… = 1/3.
- Multiply by 3: (0.33 * 3) = 0.99 g.

Conversion Definitions
Repeat
A repeat, or repeating decimal, is a decimal number with a digit or group of digits that infinitely repeats after the decimal point, such as 0.121212…, representing a rational number that can be expressed as a fraction.
g
G, or gram, is a metric unit of mass equal to one thousandth of a kilogram. It is used for measuring small quantities of weight in science, cooking, and other fields, with 1 g being a standard weight measurement unit.
Conversion FAQs
Why does 0.12 repeat convert to 1.2 grams?
This occurs because 0.12 repeat equals 4/33 as a fraction. Multiplying this fraction by a conversion factor derived from its fractional form gives the result in grams, which is approximately 1.2 grams for 0.12 repeat.
Can I use the same method to convert other repeating decimals to grams?
Yes, converting repeating decimals involves expressing them as fractions, then multiplying by the appropriate conversion factor based on the fraction’s denominator to get grams.
What if my repeat value is negative?
Negative repeat values follow the same conversion process, but the resulting grams will also be negative, indicating a weight below zero or a deficit, depending on context.
Is the conversion accurate for all repeat values?
The method provides precise results for rational repeating decimals. Slight rounding occurs when displaying decimal results, but the conversion process itself remains mathematically exact.
How do I convert a non-repeating decimal to grams?
Non-repeating decimals are converted directly by multiplying by the known conversion factor. Repeating decimals require expressing as fractions first before conversion.
