The image shows the number $3.\overline{7948}$, which is a repeating decimal, where the digits $7948$ repeat indefinitely. This notation means:

$3.\overline{7948} = 3.794879487948 \ldots$

To convert this repeating decimal to a fraction, we can set up an equation:

1. Let $x = 3.\overline{7948}$.
2. Since the repeating block $7948$ has four digits, multiply both sides by $10^4 = 10000$ to shift the decimal point: $10000x = 37948.\overline{7948}$
3. Now subtract the original $x = 3.\overline{7948}$ from this equation: $10000x - x = 37948.\overline{7948} - 3.\overline{7948}$ This simplifies to: $9999x = 37945$
4. Solving for $x$: $x = \frac{37945}{9999}$

This fraction can be simplified further if there are common factors between the numerator and denominator.
