Answer 2

let the x be 2.4178178..... →equation 1
both sides multipled by 10
10x=2.4178178..........×10
10x=24.178178178....... →equation 2
both sides multipled by 1000
10x 1000= 24.178178....×1000
10000x= 24178.178178.....→equation3
Subtracting eq.2 from rq.3
10000x =24178.178....
1000x = 24.178....
9000x= 24154
x = 12077/4500
