Question

Express 0.59 bar in the form P by q where p and q are integers and q = 0, bar is on 9​

Answer 1

Given,

A number 0.59 bar.

To Find,

The number is p/q form where p and q are integers and q≠0.

Solution,

Let us assume that

x = 0.59 bar

Multiplying this equation with 10

10x = 5.99...----(i)

Now, again multiplying the same equation with 100

100x = 59.99...----(ii)

Now, (ii)-(i) we get

90x = 54

x = 54/90

x = 3/5

Hence, 0.59 bar in p/q form is 3/5.
