Types of Decimal and Fraction

The decimals is of two types :

  • Non recurring decimal or terminating decimal

As the name proposes, non-recurring signifies the number which do not reappear or reiterate that is they terminate or come to an end such as, 0.5, 0.25, as well as 0.125 or more. For the mater of converting these fractions, only the numerator has to be divided with the denominator. For instance, if you have to convert 1/4 into a decimal then you need to divide 1 by 4 to get the answer as 0.25.

Converting 0.5 into fraction

0.5 = 5 / 10
= 1 / 2, or

converting 1/4 into Decimal

Dividing  1 by 4 we will get
= 0.25

  • Recurring decimal or non-terminating decimal

It can be said from the name itself that signifies the number which reappears or reiterate that is they do not terminate or come to an end, such as. 0.333…, 0.545454…. and more. For converting these fractions, all we have to do is to divide the numerator with the denominator. For instance, if you want to convert 1/3 in a decimal, then divide 1 by 3 to get the result as 0.333…

Converting 1/3 into decimal

Dividing 1 by 3 we will get
= 0.333..

Let, the number be z, Then,
8z – 18 = 2z + 12
⇒ 6z = 30 ⇔ z = 5.
Hence, the required number is 5.

2. The sum of two numbers is 198. If one-third of the one exceeds one - seventh of the other by 8, find the smaller number.

Let the number be z and (198 – z). then,

⇒ z/3 – (198 – z )/7 = 8.

⇒ 7z – 3(198 – z) = 168

⇒ 10z = 762

⇒ z = 76.2

Let x% of 1000.008 = 10320.408
Then, x/100 * 1000.008 = 10320.408
1000.008x = 1032040.8
x = 1032040.8/ 1000.008
x = 1032.032%

x/y = 0.00122 / 122.21
= 000.122 / 12221
= 122 / 12221000
= 61 / 6110500
x = 61 , y = 6110500

y-x = 6110500 - 61 = 6110439
y+x = 6110500+61 = 6110561

(y-x) / (y+x) = 6110439 / 6110561

9 + 0 + 4 + 1 + 7 + 0 + 5 + 4 = 30
The nearest number divisible by 7 is 35
7 * 5 = 35
Therefore, the missing number is 35 – 30 = 5
Hence, the number is 904170554

To calculate the expression .114 * .114 + 2 * .114 * .044 + .044 * .044, we can simplify it step by step:
.114 * .114 = 0.012996
2 * .114 * .044 = 0.010032
.044 * .044 = 0.001936
Adding these values together:
0.012996 + 0.010032 + 0.001936 = 0.024964
Therefore, the value of .114 * .114 + 2 * .114 * .044 + .044 * .044 is approximately 0.024964
