The p/q form of 4.\(\overline{7}\)  is ………………. A) \(\frac{35}{100}\)B) \(\frac{43}{9}\)C) 4/9D) 16/7

Answer»

Correct option is (B) 43/9

Let x = \(4.\bar{7}\)

\(\Rightarrow\) x = 4.777...           ______(1)

Multiply equation (1) by 10, we obtain

10x = 47.777...          ______(2)

Subtract equation (1) from (2), we get

10x - x = 47.777... - 4.777....

\(\Rightarrow\) 9x = 43

\(\Rightarrow\) x = \(\frac{43}{9}\).

Correct option is   B) \(\frac{43}{9}\)
