Write the following in decimal form and say what kind of decimal expansion each has :
(i) \(\frac{36}{100}\) (ii) \(\frac{1}{11}\) (iii) \(4\frac{1}{8}\)
(iv) \(\frac{3}{13}\) (v) \(\frac{2}{11}\) (vi) \(\frac{329}{400}\)
You know that \(\frac{1}{7}\) = 0142857_ . . Can you predict what the decimal expansions of \(\frac{2}{7},\frac{3}{7},\frac{4}{7},\frac{5}{7},\frac{6}{7}\) are, without actually doing the long division? If so, how? [Hint : Study the remainders while finding the value of 1/7 carefully.]
Express the following in the form \(\frac{p }{ q}\) , where p and q are integers and q ≠ 0.
(i) 0.6(ii) 0.47 (iii) 0.001.
Look at several examples of rational numbers in the form \(\frac{p}{q}\) (q ≠ 0), where p and q are integers with no common factors other than 1 and having terminating decimal representations (expansions). Can you guess what property q must satisfy?
Classify the following numbers as rational or irrational :
(i) \(\sqrt23 \)
(ii) \(\sqrt225 \)
(iii) 0.3796
(iv) 7.478478...
(v) 1.101001000100001...
