Question

Express this in simplest form​

Answer 1

Answer:

1659/990

Explanation;

i) Let x = 1.3222.....----(1)

Multiply both sides by 10, we get

10x = 13.2222.....----(2)

multiply (2) by 2 , we get

=> 100x = 132.2222....---(3)

Subtract (2) from (3) ,we get

=> 90x = 119

=> x = 119/90 ----(4)

ii) Let y = 0.353535...---(5)

multiply (5) by 100 ,we get

=> 100y = 35.353535...---(6)

Subtract (5) from (6), we get

99y = 35

=> y = 35/99 ----(7)

Now ,

x + y

= 119/90 + 35/99

= ( 1309+350)/990

= 1659/990
