Question

if x=0.15151515 Express this in the form of p/q.
​

Answer 1

Answer:

5/33

Step-by-step explanation:

let x=0.15151515

then 100x=15.151515

100x-x=15.151515-0.151515

99x=15

x=15/99

=5/33

Answer 2

Answer:

given,

x = 0.15151515.... (i)

multiply both by 100

then,

100x = 15. 151515...

=> 100x - 15 = 0.151515

=> 100x -15 = x. ( using i)

=> 100x -x = 15

=> 99x = 15

=> x = 15/99

or, x = 5/33.

this is in the form of p/q.
