Answers
Answer:
3.0232323
= 30232323 by 10000000
Answer:
The answer is 2993/990
Step-by-step explanation:
To convert 3.0232323...... in p/q form
Step 1 = Let x = 3.023232323..........
As we know that 0 is not repeating and only 23 is repeating so by multiplying x by 10(10x) we will make the number 30.232323........
10x = 30.23232323....... (1)
Step 2 = As we know that there was 3 decimal places after the point in the number 3.023 bar [on 23]
So will now multiply x by 1000(3 decimal places[so 1000])
That is 1000x = 1000 X x
= 1000 X 3.0232323.......
= 3023.23232323........ (2)
Step 3 = Now we will subtract (1) from (2) to get 3.023232323......... in p/q form
That is
(2) - (1) = 1000x - 10x
Now we will equate 1000x - 10x with their derivatives
That is,
1000x - 10x = 3023.23232323.........[1000x] - 30.23232323........[10x]
990x = 2993
x = 2993/990(by following the linear equation rules)
p = 2993(numerator)
q = 990(denominator)
3.0232323........... = x = 2993/990(p/q form)
