0.1 bar in p/q form
What is p/q form?
Before we dive into converting 0.1 bar to p/q form, let's quickly review what p/q form is. In mathematics, p/q form, also known as a rational number, is a way of expressing a decimal number as a fraction. The "p" represents the numerator (the top number) and the "q" represents the denominator (the bottom number) of the fraction.
Converting 0.1 bar to p/q form
Now, let's convert 0.1 bar to p/q form. But wait, what is 0.1 bar? In physics, 1 bar is a unit of pressure, equal to 100,000 pascals (Pa). So, 0.1 bar is equivalent to 10,000 Pa.
To convert 0.1 bar to p/q form, we need to convert the decimal value to a fraction. The easiest way to do this is to divide the decimal value by 1 and then simplify the fraction.
0.1 = 1/10
So, 0.1 bar in p/q form is:
1/10 bar
Simplifying the fraction
However, we can simplify the fraction further by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor (GCD). In this case, the GCD of 1 and 10 is 1.
1 ÷ 1 = 1 10 ÷ 1 = 10
So, the simplified p/q form of 0.1 bar is still:
1/10 bar
There you have it! 0.1 bar in p/q form is 1/10 bar.
