Express each of the following decimals p/q form where q≠0and p,q are integers 1. 0.36
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
(i). 0.36 = 36/100
Simplify it in the same p/q form,
0.36 = 18/50
On further simplifying it,
→ 0.36 = 9/25
This cannot be further simplified in p/q form.
9/25 is in p/q form, where p = 9 and q = 25 are integers and q = 25 +0.
Hence, the answer is 9/25.
(ii). 15.4 = 154/10
Simplifying it in the same p/q form,
→ 15.4 = 77/5
This cannot be further simplified in p/q form.
77/5 is in p/q form, where p = 77 and q = 5 are integers and q = 5 +0.
Hence, the answer is 77/5.
(iii). 10.25=1025/100
Simplifying it in the same p/q form,
→ 10.25 = 205/20
On further simplifying it,
→ 10.25 = 41/4
This cannot be further simplified in p/q form.
41/4 is in the form p/q, where p = 41 and q = 4 are integers and q = 4 +0
Hence, the answer is 41/4.
(iv) 3.25 = 325/100Now, on simplifying, 3.25=13/413/4 is in the form p/q, where p = 13 and q = 4 are integers and q = 4+0
hope this helps you dear
god bless you
