The number 8/7 = 1.14285714285714 ... obviously has no exact representation in any decimal floating point system (beta = 10) with finite precision t. Is there a finite floating point system (i. e., some finite integer base beta and precision t) in which this number does have an exact representation? If yes, then describe such a system. Answer the same question for the irrational number pi.
