1. Assertion: denominator of 12.145. when expressed in the form ofp/q, q=0 is of the form 2m×5n, where m and n are non-negative integers. Reason : 12.145 is a terminating decimal fraction
A) Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion
B) Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion.
C) Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect.
D) Assertion is incorrect but Reason is correct.
Answers
Answer:
Correct option isA
Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion.
In a fraction, if the denominator is of the form 2
n ×5 m then the fraction is always terminating.
In this case, 34.12345= 1000003412345
Denominator is 100000=10
5=2 5×5 5
Denominator is of the form 2 n×5 m
So, it is terminating and reason is the correct explanation to assertion.
Option A
Given : Assertion: denominator of 12.145. when expressed in the form of p/q, q=0 is of the form 2^m×5^n, where m and n are non-negative integers. Reason : 12.145 is a terminating decimal fraction
To Find : Comment on Assertion and Reason
Solution:
All real numbers which can be expressed in p/q form where p and q are integers and q ≠ 0 are rational numbers
Rational numbers in which numerator and denominators are co prime and denominators can be written in the form where m and n are non negative integers are Terminating decimals
and others are non terminating recurring decimals
Assertion: denominator of 12.145. when expressed in the form of p/q, q=0 is of the form 2^m×5^n, where m and n are non-negative integers.
12.145
= 12145/1000
= 2429/200
= 2429/2³ * 5²
Hence Assertion is True
Reason : 12.145 is a terminating decimal fraction
TRUE
Correct option is A
Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion
