Question

5.36 (36 bar) into vulgar fraction

Answer 1

Answer:

Follow the steps for the conversion of pure recurring decimal into vulgar fraction:

(i) First write the decimal form by removing the bar from the top and put it equal to n (any variable).

(ii) Then write the repeating digits at least twice.

(iii) Now find the number of digits having bars on their heads.

● If the repeating decimal has 1 place repetition, then multiply both sides by 10.

● If the repeating decimal has 2 place repetitions, then multiply both sides by 100.

● If the repeating decimal has 3 place repetitions, then multiply both sides by 1000 and so on.
