Solution
Let $$x$$ = 0.151515.... --------------(i)
Multiplying both sides by 100
=> $$100x$$ = 15.151515.... ------------(ii)
Subtracting equation (i) from (ii)
=> $$100x - x$$ = (15.151515....) - (0.151515....)
=> $$99x = 15$$
=> $$x = \frac{15}{99} = \frac{5}{33}$$
So, 0.151515....written in the form p/q is 5/33
=> Ans - (A)
