Question

Express 1.412 bar in the form of p by q where p and q are integers and q not equal to zero​

Answer 1

Let 1.412 bar be x

x=1.412 bar-(i)

multiplying 1.412 by 1000 as we have 3 digits after decimal

1000x = 1412.412bar-(ii)

By subtracting (ii) by (i) we get

1000x= 1412.412bar

- x= 1.412bar

=999x= 1411.0

x=1411/999
