Question. 84

Convert 2009 paise to rupees and express the result as a mixed fraction.

Answer:

Rs \(20\dfrac{9}{100}\)

Detailed Answer with Explanation:

Step 1: Remember: \(100\) paise \(=\) Re \(1\).

Step 2: To change paise to rupees, divide by \(100\).

We have \(2009\) paise.

Do: \(2009 \div 100\).

Step 3: Find the quotient and remainder.

\(100 \times 20 = 2000\)

\(2009 - 2000 = 9\)

So, quotient \(= 20\) and remainder \(= 9\).

Step 4: Write this in rupees.

\(2009\) paise \(=\) \(20\) rupees and \(9\) paise.

\(9\) paise \(= \dfrac{9}{100}\) rupee.

Step 5: Add them.

Total rupees \(= 20 + \dfrac{9}{100}\)

\(= 20\dfrac{9}{100}\)

Answer: Rs \(20\dfrac{9}{100}\).
