Question

Here is a table which gives the information about the total rainfall for several months compared to the average monthly rains of a town. Write each decimal in the form of rational number $\frac{\text{p}}{\text{q}}.$

Month	Above/ Below normal $($ in $cm)$
May	$2.6924$
June	$0.6096$
July	$-6.9088$
August	$-8.636$

✓

Answer

$i.$ May $= 2.6924$ $=\frac{26924}{10000}$ [remove decimal]
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{p}}{\text{q}}=\frac{6731}{2500}\text{cm} [$after dividing numerator and denominator by $4]$
$ii.$ June $= 0.6096$ $=\frac{6096}{10000} [$remove decimal$]$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{p}}{\text{q}}=\frac{381}{625}\text{cm} [$after dividing numerator and denominator by $16]$
$iii.$ July $= -6.9088$ $=-\frac{69088}{10000} [$remove decimal$]$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{p}}{\text{q}}=-\frac{4318}{625}\text{cm} [$after dividing numerator and denominator by $16]$
$iv.$ August $= -8.636$ $=-\frac{8636}{1000}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{p}}{\text{q}}=-\frac{2159}{250}\text{cm} [$after dividing numerator and denominator by $4]$
