Question

Express the following decimals in the form p/q
1) 0.00352 bar on 52​

Answer 1

Solution:

Let x = 0.003525252....---(1)

multiply (1) by 1000 , we get

1000x = 3.525252...----(2)

multiply (2) by 100 ,we get

=> 100000x = 352.5252...---(3)

subtract (2) from (3) , we get

=> 99000x = 349

=> x = 349/99000 [ p/q form]

Therefore,

x = 0.003525252....

= 349/99000
