Concept: In mathematics, any number that can be written as p/q where q 0 is considered a rational number. Additionally, every fraction that has an integer denominator and numerator and a denominator that is not zero falls into the category of rational numbers. The outcome of dividing a rational number, or fraction, will be a decimal number, either a terminating decimal or a repeating decimal.
Given: 0.282828.....
To find: the p/q form of 0.282828....
Solution: Let x = 0.282828...... ------ (i)
Multiplying equation (i) by 100
100x = 28.282828..... ----- (ii)
Now, subtracting equation eqn (i) from eqn (ii),
100x = 28.282828....
- x = 0.282828......
we get
99x = 28
Hence, the value of x is 28/99.
