MCQ
The simplest form of $0.12\overline{3}$ is:
  • A
    $\frac{41}{330}$
  • B
    $\frac{37}{330}$
  • C
    $\frac{41}{333}$
  • None of these.

Answer

Correct option: D.
None of these.
Let $\text{x}=0.12\overline{3}$
Then, $\text{x}=0.12333 \ ...(\text{i})$
$\therefore100\text{x}=12.333... \ (\text{ii})$
and $1000\text{x}=123.333... \ (\text{iii})$
On subtracting $(ii)$ from $(iii)$, we get
$900\text{x}=111$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\frac{111}{900}=\frac{37}{300}$
