$0.\overline{35}$ is equal to

  1. $\displaystyle\frac{35}{66}$
  2. $\displaystyle\frac{35}{77}$
  3. $\displaystyle\frac{35}{99}$

  4. none of these

C Correct answer
Explanation
$X=0.35353535$   -- i
Multiplying equation i with 100,

$100x=35.353535353$   --ii 
Subtracting equation i from ii 

$ 100x-x = 35.3535 - 0.3535 $
$99x=35$
$ x = \dfrac{35}{99}$

  1. $\displaystyle\frac{320}{99}$
  2. $\displaystyle\frac{321}{99}$
  3. $\displaystyle\frac{322}{99}$
  4. $\displaystyle\frac{323}{99}$

C Correct answer
Explanation

Given that,$3.\overline{25}$.


Let,

$x=3.\overline{25}$

 $x=3.252525.....$


Multiply by 100 both sides,

  $ 100x=100\times 3.252525..... $

 $ 100x=325.2525..... $

 $ 100x=322+3.2525..... $

 $ 100x=322+x $

 $ 99x=322 $

 $ x=\dfrac{322}{99} $


Hence, this is the answer.

C Correct answer
Explanation

Given that,$0.\overline{05}$

Let,

  $ x=0.\overline{05} $

 $ x=0.05050505..... $

Multiply by $100$ both sides,

 $ 100x=100\times 0.05050505..... $

 $ 100x=5.050505..... $

 $ 100x=5+0.050505..... $

 $ 100x=5+x $

 $ 99x=5 $

 $ x=\dfrac{5}{99} $


Hence, this is the answer.

Which statement is true?

  1. $ \displaystyle \frac{-8}{12} $= $ \displaystyle \frac{10}{-15} $
  2. $ \displaystyle \sqrt{3} $ is not a real number

  3. Additive identity of 5 is -5
  4. $ \displaystyle \frac{2}{5} $>$ \displaystyle \frac{4}{5} $
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Option A is correct because both fractions simplify to -2/3. Option B is false as sqrt(3) is a real number. Option C is false because the additive identity is 0, while -5 is the additive inverse of 5. Option D is false because 2/5 is less than 4/5.

D Correct answer
Explanation
An irrational is any real number that cannot be expressed as a ratio of integers.
Option $A$ is a rational number.
Option $B$ and $C$ are $\sqrt{16}$ and $\sqrt{9}$, i.e. $4$ and $3$ respectively.
$D$ cannot be expressed as a ratio of integers.
$D$ is the correct answer.
