Question

(2)
Find the decimal form of the sums below:
1/5+1/25+1/125​

Answer 1

Answer:

1/5=1×2/5×2=2/10=0.2

1/25=1×4/25×4=4/100=0.04

1/125=1×8/125×8=8/1000=0.008

therefore :0.2+0.04+0.008=0.248

Answer 2

Answer:

The decimal form of the sums $\frac{1}{5} +\frac{1}{25} +\frac{1}{125}$ is $0.248$.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have expressions as

$\frac{1}{5} +\frac{1}{25} +\frac{1}{125}$ and we need to find the sum of this expression in the decimal form

Step 1 of 2

We will first convert all the fractions into decimals for then add them collectively. So

$1/5=0.2\\1/25=0.04\\1/125=0.008$

Step 2 of 2

By adding all these decimals we get

$0.2+0.04+0.008=0.248$

Hence the decimal form of the expression $\frac{1}{5} +\frac{1}{25} +\frac{1}{125}$ is $0.248$
