The correct answer is
652/900
652/900 is correct.
In \(0.72\overline{4}\) the digits 7 and 2 do not repeat, while 4 repeats.
For such a mixed recurring decimal, take the whole digit string minus the non-repeating part, over one 9 for each repeating digit followed by one 0 for each non-repeating digit.
\(X=\dfrac{724-72}{900}=\dfrac{652}{900}\).
