I'm thinking about getting some rims for my car, what size do you recommend? 20 or 18 inches? What are the advantages/disadvantages of each wheel size.

Here's a link to the rims i want to get they're called "black ice"

Problem converting repeating decimals?

Here's my problem. I have learned that to convert a repeating decimal into a fraction requires these steps:

Example: to convert the repeating decimal .333333333...

First I let x=.333333333 (that's as many as my calculator can show)

Next I let n=the number of repeating numbers. In this case it's 1.

Then I multiply both sides of the equations x=.333333333 by 10^n or 10^1 (which equals 100)

So the second equation is now 100x=33.333333333

I then subtract the first equation from the second to get:
99x=33

I then divide the 99 to get 33/99 which equals 1/3.

But now if I use the same process to try to find say .416666666 (which is 5/12)
x=.41666666
n=1
multiply 10^1 to both sides to get
100x=41.66666666 subtract the first equation to get
99x=41.249999999
Neither of these numbers is divisible by 5 or 12! Why doesn't this formula work? What am I doing wrong. Please show examples where n=1 as well as n=more than 1.

Thank you.

I keep catching him looking at teen porn. He is 40, I'm 43.?

We have been together for 8 years. I am divorced with 4 kids. I turned down alot of other men for him. I have caught him repeatedly looking at teen porn, both internet and mags. The last time I found a "barely legal" mag, I got mad and I went to a bar. A guy started hitting on me. I would not give him my number but told him my name and he looked it up and tried to call me. My boyfriend answered the phone and was pretty upset. He swore he that he would never look at porn again. I married him in March and now found 2 mags, "barely legal" & "finally legal" in his work truck under the seat and a condom missing. He says he used the condom on himself. I should add that although I think I must look okay for my age since I still get hit on in places like the grocery store and my kids get teased about having a MILF, I am a very insecure person, so I maybe it's me. I was very up front from the start about my baggage and not wanting a relationship, so why was he want to marry so bad?
