Solution

(i)
We have:

0.001728=17281000000

0.0017283=172810000003=1728310000003

Now

On factorising 1728 into prime factors, we get:
1728=2×2×2×2×2×2×3×3×3

On grouping the factors in triples of equal factors, we get:
1728=2×2×2×2×2×2×3×3×3

Now, taking one factor from each triple, we get:
17283=2×2×3=12

Also
10000003=100×100×1003=100

0.0017283=1728310000003=12100=0.12

(ii)
We have:

0.003375=33751000000

0.0033753=337510000003=3375310000003

Now

On factorising 3375 into prime factors, we get:
3375=3×3×3×5×5×5

On grouping the factors in triples of equal factors, we get:
3375=3×3×3×5×5×5

Now, taking one factor from each triple, we get:
33753=3×5=15

Also
10000003=100×100×1003=100

0.0033753=3375310000003=15100=0.15

(iii)
We have:

0.001=11000

0.0013=110003=1310003=110=0.1
(iv)
We have:

1.331=13311000

1.3313=133110003=1331310003=11×11×11310003=1110=1.1
