Answer 1

Answer:

All you have to do is to write it in fractional form .

$2.43 = \dfrac{243}{100}$

Answer 2

Answer :

Now , we have to find out a number that has 2 zeros after the digit 1.

The only number that satisfies this condition is 100.

So , we will shift the decimal point two places towards the right .

So , we get :

$\large{\boxed{\tt{ \dfrac{243}{100}}}}$

Verification :

$\longrightarrow{\tt{\dfrac{243}{100} = 2.43}}$

$\longrightarrow{\tt{2.43 = 2.43}}$

LHS = RHS

Hence , verified

Supplementary information :

• The numbers which are written in p by Q form where p and q are integers and q is not equal to zero are called as rational numbers. They are either terminating or non terminating but recurring.
• Eg : 3/5 , 5/7 , 16/39

• Note that when we divide any number that is a multiple of 10 or 10 itself the decimal point would move towards the left.
• Eg :

1. 1.90/ 100 = 1.90
2. 483.29 / 10 = 48.329
3. 7272.3 /1000 = 7.2723

• If we multiply any number that is a multiple of 10 or 10 itself the decimal point moves towards the right.
• Eg :

1. 272.383 × 10 = 27238.3
2. 7262.8 × 10 = 72628
