We are given the recurring decimal 0. 54 ¯   and it is to be written in simplest form.
To express 0. 54 ¯   in the form of p q  , assume this number as, say x, and it can be written in the expanded form as follows,
x=054545454.......  ……….. (i)
To shift the decimal point by two places to the right, we multiply the equation (i) by 100 on each side as follows, 
100x=54545454.....  …………. (ii)
Now, we subtract equation (i) from (ii) and simplify as follows,
100xx=54.545454.....0.545454..... 99x=54 x= 54 99 x= 6 11  
So, from the above result, we can conclude that,
0. 54 ¯ = 6 11  .
So, it is the required simplest form.
Hence, the correct option is (2).
