Question

Express 2.4178 bar in the form of p/q where p and q are integers and q enqual 0

Answer 1

Let be  2.4178 = x (1)equ

Multiplying both the  sides by 1000

2.4178 × 1000 = x × 1000

1000x = 2417.8 (2)equ

Lets subtract {2}- {1}

1000x = 2417.8000

      x =        2.4178

999x = 2415.3822

So, 999x = 2415.3822 

999x = 2415.4

x = 2415.4/999
