Question

Represent 2.62(62 in bar) in p/q form

Answer 1

Let __

x = 2.62 ......1

__

100x = 262.62........2

Now, Equating 2-1 on both sides,

__ __

100x - x = 262.62 - 2.62

=> 99x = 260

=> x = 260/99

Answer 2

Concept★

→ Let the p/q form of 2.62(bar) be X.

Step By Step Solution★

→ Let x = 2.62(bar)

=> x = 2.62(bar) ............(i)

→Multiplying Both sides by 10......

=>10x = 26.2626262......(62 under bar, 2 is not under

bar) ........ (ii)

→ Multiplying both sides again by 10.......

=> 100x = 262.62(bar).........(iii)

→ Subtracting Eqn (ii) from eqn(iii).....

=> 100x = 262.62(bar)

– 10x = 26.62(bar)

=> 90x = 236

=> X = 236/90

So, X = 236/90 Ans.....
