Terminating Decimal Condition 📘 Question Look at several examples of rational numbers \( \frac{p}{q} \) (where \(q \ne 0\), and \(p, q\) have no common factors except 1) that have terminating decimal representations. What property must \(q\) satisfy? ✏️ Explanation Step 1: Observe examples \(\frac{1}{2} = 0.5\) \(\frac{3}{4} = 0.75\) \(\frac{7}{5} = 1.4\) \(\frac{9}{20} = […]

Convert Rational Numbers to Recurring Decimals 📘 Question Express the following rational numbers as decimals: (i) \( \frac{2}{3} \) (ii) \( -\frac{4}{9} \) (iii) \( -\frac{2}{15} \) (iv) \( -\frac{22}{13} \) (v) \( \frac{437}{999} \) ✏️ Step-by-Step Solution (i) \( \frac{2}{3} \) \[ \frac{2}{3} = 0.\overline{6} \] — (ii) \( -\frac{4}{9} \) \[ -\frac{4}{9} =

Rational Numbers Between 3/5 and 4/5 📘 Question Find five rational numbers between \( \frac{3}{5} \) and \( \frac{4}{5} \). ✏️ Step-by-Step Solution Step 1: Convert to equivalent fractions \[ \frac{3}{5} = \frac{18}{30}, \quad \frac{4}{5} = \frac{24}{30} \] — Step 2: Choose numbers in between \[ \frac{19}{30}, \frac{20}{30}, \frac{21}{30}, \frac{22}{30}, \frac{23}{30} \] — Step 3:

Convert Rational Numbers to Decimals 📘 Question Express the following rational numbers as decimals: (i) \( \frac{42}{100} \) (ii) \( \frac{327}{500} \) (iii) \( \frac{15}{4} \) ✏️ Step-by-Step Solution (i) \( \frac{42}{100} \) Divide numerator by denominator: \[ \frac{42}{100} = 0.42 \] — (ii) \( \frac{327}{500} \) Convert denominator to 1000: \[ \frac{327}{500} = \frac{654}{1000}
