Q2. Express each of the following decimals in the form of rational number (p/q)
(i)
(ii)
Solution:
(i) Let x =
Then, x = = 0.444
___ (a)
Multiplying both sides of equation (a) by 10, we get,
10x = 4.44.... ___ (b)
Subtracting equation (1) by (2)
9x = 4
x = 4/9
Hence, = x = 4/9
(ii) Let x =
Then, x = = 0.3737
___ (a)
Multiplying both sides of equation (a) by 100, we get,
100 x = 37.37.... ___ (b)
Subtracting equation (1) by (2)
99 x = 37
x = 37/99
Hence, = x = 37/99
