Multiple choice maths real number first forms rational numbers as recurring/terminating decimals decimal expansions of real numbers

$0.\overline{585}$ is equal to

  1. $\displaystyle\frac{585}{99}$
  2. $\displaystyle\frac{585}{999}$
  3. $\displaystyle\frac{999}{585}$
  4. none of these

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Given that, $0.\overline{585}$.

Let,

$ x=0.\overline{585} $

$ x=0.585585585........ $

 

Multiply by 1000 on both sides,

$ 1000x=1000\times 0.585585585........ $

$ =585.585585585.... $

$ =585+0.585585585........ $

$ 1000x=585+x $

$ 999x=585 $

$ x=\dfrac{585}{999} $

 

Hence, this is the answer.

B Correct answer
Explanation
Any division is complete only when we get the remainder zero.
Therefore, $B$ is the correct answer.

Which option will have a terminating decimal expansion?

  1. $\dfrac {77}{210}$
  2. $\dfrac {23}{30}$
  3. $\dfrac {125}{441}$
  4. $\dfrac {23}{8}$

D Correct answer
Explanation

The decimal expansion of a number may terminate in which case the number is called a regular number or finite decimal. In the given options:

a. $\dfrac{77}{210} = 0.366666666....... \; or  \; 0.3\bar6$

b. $\dfrac{23}{30} = 0.766666666....... \; or  \; 0.7\bar6$

c. $\dfrac{125}{441} = 0.283446712......$ i.e. it goes on infintely

d. $\dfrac{23}{8} = 2.875$

A number having non-terminating and recurring decimal expansion is.

  1. An integer

  2. A rational number

  3. An irrational number

  4. A whole number

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

A number having non-terminating and recurring decimal expansion is  a Rational Number


for example 

$\dfrac{2}{7}$  is a rational number 

$\dfrac{2}{7} =0.285714285714285714.......... $

or   $\dfrac{2}{7} =\overline{0.285714}.......... $

the number has non-terminating decimal expansion but recurring after every 6 digits after decimal

So option $B $ is correct

Which of the following numbers has the terminating decimal representation?

  1. $\displaystyle \frac{1}{7}$
  2. $\displaystyle \frac{1}{3}$
  3. $\displaystyle \frac{3}{5}$
  4. $\displaystyle \frac{17}{3}$

C Correct answer
Explanation

$\dfrac{3}{5} = 0.6$ which is terminating decimal. 


$\dfrac{1}{7} = 0.142857.....$

$\dfrac{1}{3} = 0.333......$

$\dfrac{17}{3} = 5.6666......$
