Answer 2

Answer:

It removes the repeating part of the decimal from the equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Described here is the process of converting the repeating decimal fraction into fraction in the form of p/q

1) --------------

• x = 0.555555

2) --------------

• 10x = 5.555555

3) --------------

• 10 x - x = 5.555555 - 0.555555
• 9x = 5
• x = 5/9

So the purpose of step 3 here is to remove the repeating part of the decimal from the equation

Correct option is the first one.
