Step-by-step explanation:
let X =0.588(whole bar)
multiply 1000 on both the sides
1000x=588.588(0.588 whole bar)
subratct both the equations
1000x=588.588-X=0.588
999X=588
X=196/333
x=0.588588... -(equation 1)
1000x=588.588... (mutiplying both side by 1000) -(equation 2)
subtracting equation 1 from 2=
1000x-x = 588.588...-0.588588...
999x = 588
x = 588\999
it is in p/q form
