Write terminating decimals in the form of p÷q where p ,q are co-primes

15.265; 0.1255

Open in App

Solution

1) let x =15.265
Multiplying by 1000 on both sides ( 3 decimals)

=> 1000x=15265
=> x =15265/1000

2) let x =0.1255
Multiplying by 10000 on both sides ( 4 decimals)

=> 10000x=1255
=> x=1255/10000

Hope you understand.

Thank you :)
