The correct Answer is:
To express each of the given recurring decimals into rational numbers, we will follow a systematic approach for each part. ### (i) Convert \(0.\overline{5}\) 1. Let \(x = 0.\overline{5}\). 2. This means \(x = 0.5555...\). 3. Multiply both sides by 10: \[ 10x = 5.5555... \] 4. Now, subtract the first equation from the second: \[ 10x - x = 5.5555... - 0.5555... \] This simplifies to: \[ 9x = 5 \] 5. Therefore, \[ x = \frac{5}{9} \] ### (ii) Convert \(2.\overline{4}\) 1. Let \(x = 2.\overline{4}\). 2. This means \(x = 2.4444...\). 3. Multiply both sides by 10: \[ 10x = 24.4444... \] 4. Subtract the first equation from the second: \[ 10x - x = 24.4444... - 2.4444... \] This simplifies to: \[ 9x = 22 \] 5. Therefore, \[ x = \frac{22}{9} \] ### (iii) Convert \(1.\overline{12}\) 1. Let \(x = 1.\overline{12}\). 2. This means \(x = 1.121212...\). 3. Multiply both sides by 100: \[ 100x = 112.1212... \] 4. Subtract the first equation from the second: \[ 100x - x = 112.1212... - 1.1212... \] This simplifies to: \[ 99x = 111 \] 5. Therefore, \[ x = \frac{111}{99} = \frac{37}{33} \quad (\text{after simplification}) \] ### (iv) Convert \(2.7\overline{39}\) 1. Let \(x = 2.7\overline{39}\). 2. This means \(x = 2.7393939...\). 3. Multiply both sides by 10: \[ 10x = 27.393939... \] 4. Multiply both sides by 1000: \[ 1000x = 2739.393939... \] 5. Subtract the second equation from the first: \[ 1000x - 10x = 2739.393939... - 27.393939... \] This simplifies to: \[ 990x = 2712 \] 6. Therefore, \[ x = \frac{2712}{990} = \frac{452}{165} \quad (\text{after simplification}) \] ### (v) Convert \(0.\overline{516}\) 1. Let \(x = 0.\overline{516}\). 2. This means \(x = 0.516516...\). 3. Multiply both sides by 1000: \[ 1000x = 516.516516... \] 4. Subtract the first equation from the second: \[ 1000x - x = 516.516516... - 0.516516... \] This simplifies to: \[ 999x = 516 \] 5. Therefore, \[ x = \frac{516}{999} = \frac{172}{333} \quad (\text{after simplification}) \] ### (vi) Convert \(3.7\overline{148}\) 1. Let \(x = 3.7\overline{148}\). 2. This means \(x = 3.714814814...\). 3. Multiply both sides by 10: \[ 10x = 37.14814814... \] 4. Multiply both sides by 10000: \[ 10000x = 37148.14814814... \] 5. Subtract the second equation from the first: \[ 10000x - 10x = 37148.14814814... - 37.14814814... \] This simplifies to: \[ 9990x = 37111 \] 6. Therefore, \[ x = \frac{37111}{9990} = \frac{1003}{270} \quad (\text{after simplification}) \] ### Summary of Results: 1. \(0.\overline{5} = \frac{5}{9}\) 2. \(2.\overline{4} = \frac{22}{9}\) 3. \(1.\overline{12} = \frac{37}{33}\) 4. \(2.7\overline{39} = \frac{452}{165}\) 5. \(0.\overline{516} = \frac{172}{333}\) 6. \(3.7\overline{148} = \frac{1003}{270}\)
