Write 1.48 repeating as a mixed number
it would be 1 as your whole number and 48/99 typiclly it would be 48/100 but since its a repeating number it would be over 99 now weather or not your teacher wants you to reduce that i dont know
Answer:
The required mixed fraction is \(1.4848..=1\frac{16}{33}\)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Number 1.48 repeating.
To find : Write the number as a mixed number?
Solution :
Let the number
\(x=1.484848...\) ....(1)
Multiply both side by 100,
\(100x=148.4848...\) .....(2)
Subtract (1) and (2),
\(100x-x=(148.4848...)-(1.4848...)\)
\(99x=147\)
\(x=\frac{147}{99}\)
\(x=\frac{49}{33}\)
Now, Divide 49 by 33
\(49=33\times 1+16\)
Into mixed fraction, \(\frac{49}{33}=1\frac{16}{33}\)
Therefore, The required mixed fraction is \(1.4848..=1\frac{16}{33}\)
