Answer:

⇒x = 2360/990

Step-by-step explanation:

Expressing the following decimal expression in the form of p/q:

Let x = 2.393 ( bar on 93 )

Then, 10x = 23.9393.......(i)

Also, 1000x = 2393.9393.......(ii)

Now,

Subtracting (i) from (ii), we get;

=> 1000x - 10x = 2393.9393.. - 23.9393..

=> 990x = 2360

⇒x = 2360/990
