Question

Express 0. 588(588 whole bar) in the form of p/q. ​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let X =0.588(whole bar)

multiply 1000 on both the sides

1000x=588.588(0.588 whole bar)

subratct both the equations

1000x=588.588-X=0.588

999X=588

X=196/333

Answer 2

x=0.588588...          -(equation 1)

1000x=588.588... (mutiplying both side by 1000)      -(equation 2)

subtracting equation 1 from 2=

1000x-x = 588.588...-0.588588...

999x = 588

x = 588\999

it is in p/q form
