Right guys. Its a just a trick, keep it in mind that since its 2 decimal place used 99, if it is 3, than we have to take 999.

There is another simple way. The number which is not under the bar will be get minus from the whole number. In the denominator, no.of 9 digits will be based on the no.of digits which are under the bar.

6.46 = (646-6)/99.
= 640/99.

How can we get 594 on numerator?

Karthik said:   1 decade ago
@Anji.

6+(46/99) by taking LCM.

(6*99)+46 = 594.
