Convert into decimal. (i) Three hundred three and nine hundredths. (ii) Six and fifty five thousands

Answer»

(i) Three hundred three and nine hundredths = 303 + \(\frac{9}{100}\)

= 303 + 0 x \(\frac{1}{10}\) + 9 x \(\frac{1}{100}\)

= 303.09

(ii) Six and fifty five thousands 6 + \(\frac{55}{100}\) = 6 + \(\frac{5}{100}\) + \(\frac{5}{1000}\)

= 6 + \(\frac{0}{10}\) + \(\frac{5}{100}\) + \(\frac{5}{1000}\)

= 6.055

Recall, 2π is defined as the ratio of the circumference (say c) of a circle to its diameter (say d). That is, π = \(\frac{c}{d}\). This seems to contradict the fact that n is irrational. How will you resolve this contradiction ?

Answer»

There is no contradiction. When we measure a length with a scale or any other device we get quotient. 

Therefore we cannot judge whether c is a rational number of d is an irrational number. 

∴ Value of \(\frac{c}{d}\) is irratrional number. 

∴ Value of π is also irrational number.
