Question

Express 0.123 bar on 3 in the form of p/q where p and q are integers and q is not equal to 0

Answer 1

Let x = 0.123 (bar)

_____________________

Multiply by 100,

100*x = 100*0.123 (bar)

100x = 12. 3(bar)
____________________________

As there is one number (3) under bar, multiply by 10

10 *100x = 10 * 12.3 (bar)

1000x = 123. 3 bar 
   
subtract 100x from both sides,

1000x = 123.3 (bar)
-100x =  -12. 3 (bar)

900x = 111  [bar will cancel]

$x= \frac{111}{900}$


Now,

0.123 (bar on 3)  in p/q form is  $\frac{111}{900}$
