Write the following rational number in `bb(p/q)` form.

`2.bar514`

Sum
Advertisements

Solution

Let x = `2.bar514`   ...(1)

Multiplying both sides by 1000, we get 

1000x = `2514.bar514`    ...(2)

Subtracting (1) from (2), we get

∴ 1000x – x = `2514.bar514-2.bar514`

∴ 999x = 2512

`therefore x = 2512/999`

So, `2.bar514=2512/999`
