Rational Numbers: All the numbers which can be written in the form of pq. Here, p and q are integers and q is not equal to 0. Integers and fractions constitute rational numbers. Rational numbers are either terminating or recurring.
Irrational Numbers: These are non-terminating and non-recurring.
Real Numbers: All rational and irrational numbers constitute real numbers. Real numbers can be represented on a number line.
It is given that 270 dollars, when converted into pesos, is equal to 3,000 pesos. We need to convert 100 pesos into the amount in dollars.
Let us find the exchange rate that is, the amount in dollars equivalent to 1 peso.
3000  Pesos = 270  Dollars
3000 3000 P e s o s = 270 3000  Dollars
1  Peso=0.09 Dollars ···(1)
Therefore, we can observe that 1 peso is equivalent to 0.09 dollars. Multiply both sides of equation 1 with 100 and simplify to find the amount in dollars equivalent to 100 pesos.
1  Peso = 0.09  Dollars 100 × ( 1  Peso ) = 100 × ( 0.09  Dollars ) 100  Pesos = 9  Dollars
Answer: 9 Dollars
