write the decimal expansion of the following rational numbers with out actual division 151/50
Answers
Answer:
For doing this first you should know that
25/100=0.25
1/100=0.01
Now,
We try to convert the fractions into the above form to get the decimals directly,
So,
i)35/50
We multiply the numerator and denominator by 2
We get,
70/100
=0.7
ii)
21/25
We multiply the numerator and denominator by 4
We get,
84/100
=0.84
iii)
Now, 100 is not divisible by 8 but 1000 is divisible by 8
So,
We multiply numerator and denominator by 125
We get,
875/1000
=0.875
Thus we can get the expansion without doing any actual division

Decimal Expansion. The decimal expansion of a number is its representation in base-10 (i.e., in the decimal system). In this system, each "decimal place" consists of a digit 0-9 arranged such that each digit is multiplied by a power of 10, decreasing from left to right, and with a decimal place indicating the s place.
So we write 151/50 as 151*2/50*2=302/100
and we can say that 151/50=302/100=3.02
