The sum of two repeating decimals 2015-10-22
From Kaitlin:
Here is the question I am struggling with:

Is the sum of two repeating decimals always repeating decimal? Explain your answer and give an example.

I answered this question thinking that no you cannot but only when adding 0.9 repeating, but my professor said this was incorrect.

Thanks for the help!
