Answer 2

Answer:$\frac{4}{25}$

Step-by-step explanation:

bar on a number means the number is repeating infinite times. to solve such equation we use some methods. i am explaining the method below:-

given that x =0.15 ̅9

as we know

$x=\frac{159-15}{900}\\\\x=\frac{144}{900}\\\\x=\frac{4}{25}$

so x in p/q form is $\frac{4}{25}$
