The conversion of 0.18 repeat to grams results in approximately 4.5 g.
Since 0.18 repeat means 0.181818…, multiplying this decimal by 24 gives the weight in grams because each repeat corresponds to 1/24 of a gram. Therefore, 0.181818… x 24 = 4.363636…, which rounds to about 4.5 grams.
Understanding the Conversion: Repeat to Gram
The repeat value 0.18 represents a repeating decimal, which is 0.181818… To convert to grams, we multiply this decimal by 24, because each repeat unit equals 1/24 of a gram. The calculation is 0.181818… x 24, resulting in approximately 4.36 g. Rounding gives about 4.5 g.

Conversion Formula
The formula to convert repeat to grams is: repeat value x (24/99). This works because 0.18 repeat is 0.181818…, which is a repeating decimal. Each repeat equals 1/24 of a gram. Multiplying the decimal by 24 and dividing by 1 gives the weight in grams. For example:
- 0.18 repeat = 0.181818…
- 0.181818… x 24 = 4.363636…
- Rounded to 4.36 g, approximately 4.5 g when rounded.

- Convert 0.25 repeat:
- Step 1: Write decimal as 0.252525…
- Step 2: Multiply by 24: 0.252525… x 24 = 6.06
- Step 3: Round result to 6.06 grams.
- Convert 0.10 repeat:
- Step 1: 0.101010… as decimal
- Step 2: Multiply by 24: 0.101010… x 24 = 2.424
- Step 3: Result approximately 2.42 grams.
- Convert 0.33 repeat:
- Step 1: 0.333333… in decimal
- Step 2: Multiply by 24: 0.333333… x 24 = 8.00
- Step 3: Exact 8 grams.

Conversion Definitions
Repeat
Repeat is a decimal or fractional measure representing how many times a pattern or unit occurs, often used in textiles, printing, or measurements, expressed as a decimal with a repeating pattern, like 0.181818… indicating an ongoing cycle.
g
Grams (g) are a metric unit of mass equal to one-thousandth of a kilogram, used globally for measuring weight, especially for small quantities like powders, ingredients, or small objects in scientific, culinary, or industrial contexts.
Conversion FAQs
Why does 0.18 repeat convert to approximately 4.5 grams?
Because 0.18 repeat, or 0.181818…, multiplied by 24 gives roughly 4.36 grams. Rounding it to the nearest half or whole number results in about 4.5 grams, which is a common approximation used for simplicity.
Can I convert any repeating decimal to grams using this method?
Yes, as long as you understand that each repeat unit equals 1/24 of a gram, you can multiply the decimal by 24 to find the grams. For other repeats, the conversion factor might differ, but for 0.18 repeat, this formula applies.
What happens if I input a negative repeat value?
Negative repeat values indicate a reverse or negative measurement in some contexts. Multiplying a negative value by 24 will give a negative gram measurement, which may represent loss, deficit, or an inverse in specific applications.
