convert decimal to fraction .333= ?
333/1000
answer is 1/3 how??
well 1/3 is .333..... that is .3 recurring
Let x=0.3333..... 10x = 3.333....... Subtracting 2 from 1 9x = 3 x = 1/3
0.333 is not the same as 0.333.....
That is supposed to be a recurring.
no amogh
What i mean is, the question is wrong, its 0.3333....
question is same and its here but wanted sm different view http://www.mathsisfun.com/converting-decimals-fractions.html see in last
Yes, they have first mentioned a non-recurring number, 0.333 = 333/1000 [it is stated, it cannot be further simplified] And the second case is a recurring, 0.333....
yeah
so amog ur answer is correct it seems .. this approch? Let x=0.3333..... 10x = 3.333....... Subtracting 2 from 1 9x = 3 x = 1/3
amog's answer is correct for 0.333.... but .333 is different fraction
0.3333..... goes on forever its an infinite decimal. sometimes it is written as 0.3 with a dot above the 3, but I cant do that on my keyboard!
