Question 2.Express each of the following decimals in the rational form 
.
Answer:let x =
x = 0.99999….. -→(i)
Here the periodicity of the decimal is one
So, we multiply both sides of (i) by 10 and we get
10x = 9.999…-→(ii)
Subtract (i) from (ii)
10x = 9.999….

Then p = 4 and q = 11
p + q = 4 + 11 = 15
Express each of the following decimal in theform.
(i) 0.57
(ii) 0.176
(iii) 1.00001
(iv) 25.125
Answer:
(i)
(ii)
(iii)
(iv)
Question 2.
Express each of the following decimals in the rational form .
Answer:
let x =
x = 0.99999….. -→(i)
Here the periodicity of the decimal is one
So, we multiply both sides of (i) by 10 and we get
10x = 9.999…-→(ii)
Subtract (i) from (ii)
10x = 9.999….
x = 0.999…
10x - x = 9.999... - 0.999...9x = 9.0
x = 1
Hence = 1
Question 3.
Express each of the following decimals in the rational form .
Answer:
let x =
X = 0.575757….. -→(i)
Here the periodicity of the decimal is two
So, we multiply both sides of (i) by 100 and we get
100x = 57.575757…-→(ii)
Subtract (i) from (ii)
100x = 57.5757….
X = 0.5757…
99x = 57.0
(divide by 99 on both sides)
Hence =

Question 7.
If of a number exceeds of the same number by 36. Find the number.
Answer:
let the number is x
Then of x
According to the question,
9x = 3635
(multiply 35 on both the sides)
9X = 1260
(divide by 9 on both the sides)
X = 140
Question 8.
Two pieces of lengths m and m are cut off from a rope 11 m long. What is the length of the remaining rope?
Answer:
total length of the rope = 11m
Let the third part of rope be x
Length of first piece = m = m
Length of second piece = m = m
According to the question,
(By taking L.C.M.)
Question 9.
The cost of meters of cloth is. Find the cost per metre.
Answer:
cost of cloth = =
Length of cloth = =
Cost per meter =
(divide cost of cloth by length of cloth)
= 1.66 is the cost per meter
Question 10.

Answer:
length = m =
Breadth = m =
Area = length breadth
=
Question 11.
What number shouldbe divided by to get?
Answer:
let the number which be divided by be x
According to the question
(Multiply by x on both the sides)
Question 12.
If 36 trousers of equal sizes can be stitched with 64 meters of cloth. What is the length of the cloth required for each trouser?
Answer:
number of trousers = 36
Length of cloth = 64m
Length required for each trouser = m
Question 13.
When the repeating decimal 0.363636 .... is written in simplest fractional form, find the sum p + q.
Answer:
x = 0.363636…(i)
Periodicity = 2
So,
100x = 36.363636….(ii)
From (i) and (ii)
100x = 36.363636….
X = 0.3636363…
