Question : $1.\overline{2} \times 0.\overline{03}$ =

Option 1: $0.\overline{04}$

Option 2: $0.0\overline{36}$

Option 3: $1.\overline{13}$

Option 4: $0.\overline{037}$

Team Careers360 17th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $0.\overline{037}$


Solution : Given: $1.\overline{2} \times 0.\overline{03}$
Fraction form of $1.\overline{2}= \left (1+\frac{2}{9} \right )=\frac{11}{9}$
Fraction form of $0.\overline{03}=\frac{3}{99} =\frac{1}{33}$
Now, $1.\overline{2} \times 0.\overline{03}=\frac{11}{9} \times \frac{1}{33}=\frac{1}{27}=\frac{1 \times37}{27 \times 37}=\frac{37}{999}=0.\overline{037}$
Hence, the correct answer is $0.\overline{037}$.

Question : If $1 \frac{1}{3} \div \frac{2}{5} \times \frac{x}{5}=1 \frac{1}{4} \times \frac{2}{3} \div \frac{1}{6}$, then the value of $x$ is:

Option 1: 5.5

Option 2: 7.5

Option 3: 7.0
