प्रश्न

Express the following recurring decimal as a rational number:

`0.bar32`

योग

उत्तर

`0.bar32` = 0.323232…

= 0.32 + 0.0032 + 0.000032 + …

Here, 0.32, 0.0032, 0.000032, … are in G.P. with a = 0.32 and r = 0.01

Since, | r | = |0.01| < 1

∴ Sum to infinity exists.

∴ Sum to infinity = `"a"/(1 - "r")`

∴ `0.bar32` = `0.32/(1 - (0.01)) = 0.32/0.99`

∴ `0.bar32 = 32/99`.
