Question

Express 10.425 in p/q form where p,q are integers q not eqal to 0

Answer 1

Answer:

$10.425425.....=\frac{10415}{999}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Concept used:

A number of the form $\frac{p}{q}$ where p and q are integers q$\neq0$ is called a rational number.

Let

$x=10.425425425................$-----(1)

Multiply both sides by 1000

$1000x=10425.425425................$----(2)

(2)-(1) ==>

$1000x-x=10415$

$999x=10415$

$x=\frac{10415}{999}$
