Express each of the following as a fraction in simplest form.
i.
ii. ![]()
iii.
iv. ![]()
v.
vi. ![]()
i) Let x = 0.
- (i)
Multiply 10 on both sides -
10x = 8.
- (ii)
Subtract the equations (i) from (ii) -
9x = 8
So x = ![]()
ii) Let x = 2.
- (i)
Multiply 10 on both sides -
10x = 24.
- (ii)
Subtract the equations (i) from (ii) -
9x = 22
So x = ![]()
iii) Let x = 0.
- (i)
Multiply 100 on both sides -
100x = 24.
- (ii)
Subtract the equations (i) from (ii) -
99x = 24
So x =
= ![]()
iv) Let x = 0.1
- (i)
Multiply 10 on both sides -
10x = 1.
- (ii)
Multiply 10 on both sides -
100x = 12.
- (iii)
Subtract the equations (ii) from (iii) -
90x = 11
So x = ![]()
v) Let x = 2.2
- (i)
Multiply 10 on both sides -
10x = 22.
- (ii)
Multiply 10 on both sides -
100x = 224.
- (iii)
Subtract the equations (ii) from (iii) -
90x = 202
So x =
= ![]()
vi) Let x = 0.
- (i)
Multiply 1000 on both sides -
1000x = 365.
- (ii)
Subtract the equations (i) from (ii) -
999x = 364
So x = ![]()
