They are the multiples of 27.

1/37=27/999
rule: repeating digits of abc/999 are abc (abc is a 3 digit number)
n/37 = 27*n /999 ====> 27*n will give you the number you seek for

Can't do it. If I let n=74 then 74/37 = 2 and there are no repeating decimals.
Did you have any particular (and different) value of n in mind?
