Question

Express 18.48 ( 48 bar) in the form of p/q where p and q are intergers q not equal 0

Answer 1

The p/q form of the value of $\bold{18.\overline{48}\ is X=\frac{1830}{99}}$  

Solution:

The number that has to be in P/Q form be denoted by X.

Now, let us multiply the number X by 100 we get 100X = 18.48(100) = 1848.48.

Therefore, the value of 100X = 1848.48, now as we know that the value of X is equal to 18.48,

Hence, subtract X = 18.48 from 100X = 1848.48, we get:  

Which is attached below.

The value after subtraction as 99X = 1830, Hence the value of X is equal to $X=\frac{1830}{99}$

Now the value of X is in form of P/Q.

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Express 18.48

let x= 18.4848.... eq1

multiply eq 1 by 100

100x=1848.48....eq 2

subtract eq 1 from eq 2

100x-x=1848.48-18.4848

99x=1830

x=1830/99
