What is the value of $2.\overline {6} - 1.\overline (9)$

  1. $0.\overline {6}$

  2. $0.\overline {9}$

  3. $0.\overline {7}$

  4. $0.7$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The value of $2.\overline {6} - 1.\overline {9}$ is
$= \left (2 + \dfrac {6}{9}\right ) - \left (1 + \dfrac {9}{9}\right )$
$= \dfrac {6}{9} = 0.\overline {6}$

$3.\overline { 87 } -2.\overline { 59 } =$?

  1. $1.20$

  2. $1.\overline { 2 } $

  3. $1.\overline { 27 } $

  4. $1.\overline { 28 } $


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

$3.\overline { 87 } -2.\overline { 59 } =\left( 3+0.\overline { 87 }  \right) -\left( 2+0.\overline { 59 }  \right) $

$=\left( 3+\dfrac { 87 }{ 99 }  \right) -\left( 2+\dfrac { 59 }{ 99 }  \right) $

$=1+\left( \dfrac { 87 }{ 99 } -\dfrac { 59 }{ 99 }  \right) $

$=1+\dfrac { 28 }{ 99 } $

$=1.\overline { 28 } $.

The value of $(1.02)^4+(0.98)^4$ upto three places of decimal is

  1. $2.004$

  2. $2.003$

  3. $2.04$

  4. $2.0004$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

${\left( 1.02 \right)}^{4} + {\left( 0.98 \right)}^{4}$

$= {\left( 1 + 0.02 \right)}^{4} + {\left( 1 - 0.02 \right)}^{4}$
$= \left[ {^{4}{C} _{0}} {\left( 1 \right)}^{4} + {^{4}{C} _{1}} {\left( 1 \right)}^{4-1} {\left( 0.02 \right)}^{1} + {^{4}{C} _{2}} {\left( 1 \right)}^{4-2} {\left( 0.02 \right)}^{2} + {^{4}{C} _{3}} {\left( 1 \right)}^{4-3} {\left( 0.02 \right)}^{3} + {^{4}{C} _{4}} {\left( 1 \right)}^{4-4} {\left( 0.02 \right)}^{4} \right] + \ \left[ {^{4}{C} _{0}} {\left( 1 \right)}^{4} - {^{4}{C} _{1}} {\left( 1 \right)}^{4-1} {\left( 0.02 \right)}^{1} + {^{4}{C} _{2}} {\left( 1 \right)}^{4-2} {\left( 0.02 \right)}^{2} - {^{4}{C} _{3}} {\left( 1 \right)}^{4-3} {\left( 0.02 \right)}^{3} + {^{4}{C} _{4}} {\left( 1 \right)}^{4-4} {\left( 0.02 \right)}^{4} \right]$
$= 2 \left[ {^{4}{C} _{0}} + {^{4}{C} _{2}} \left( 0.0004 \right) + {^{4}{C} _{4}} \left( 0.00000016 \right) \right]$
$= 2 \times \left( 1 + 0.0024 + 0.00000016 \right)$
$= 2 \times 1.002$
$= 2.004$
Hence the value of given expression upto three places of decimal is $2.004$.
