Answers
I have done in pic. check ones
Answer:
3429/3700
(Proof in the attachment ^_^")
Note:
★ Rational number : The number which can be written in the form of p/q where p and q are integers and q ≠ 0 , is called rational number .
★ Rational numbers are characterized as ;
1). Terminating
2). Non-terminating but repeating
( Non-terminating but recurring )
★ Every terminating decimal and Non-terminating but repeating decimal can be represented in the form of p/q .
Solution:
Let the given number be x .
Thus,
x = 0.92675675.... ---------(1)
Now,
Multiplying eq-(1) by 100 , we get ;
=> 100x = 100 × 0.92675675...
=> 100x = 92.675675... --------(2)
Now,
Multiplying eq-(2) by 100 , we get ;
=> 1000 × 100x = 1000 × 92.675675...
=> 100000x = 92675.675675... -------(3)
Now,
Subtracting eq-(2) from eq-(3) , we get ;
=> 100000x - 100x = 92675.675675...
– 92.675675....
=> 99900x = 92583
=> x = 92583/99900
=> x = 3429/3700
=> 0.92675675.... = 3429/3700
Hence,
The required answer is : 3429/3700
