Question

Express the following in the form of p/q , where p and q are integers and p/q 3.2​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let x= 3.2 (Pure recurring decimal)

i.e. x=3.222 (1)

Multiplying (1) by 10, we get

10x= 32.2222 (2)

Subtracting (1) by (2), we get

10x-x= (32.222....) - (3.222...)

9x= 29

x= 29÷9

Thus, 3.2= 39÷9
