Question

Write the following rational numbers in `p/q` form.

3.17

Sum
Advertisements

Solution

Let x = 3.17      ...(1)

Multiplying both sides by 100, we get

100x = 317.17     ...(2)

Subtracting (1) from (2), we get

∴ 100x - x = 317.17  - 3.17

∴  99x = 314 

`therefore x = 314/99`

So, 3.17 = `314/99`
