Detailed Solution

It is given the recurring decimal as 3. 14 ¯  .
To express it in the form of p q  , assume this number as, say x, and write in the expanded form as follows, x=3141414.......                          ………... (i)
To shift the decimal point by two places to the right, multiply the equation (i) by 100 on each side as follows,
100x=314.141414.....               …………. (ii)
Now subtract equation (i) from (ii) and simplify as follows,
100xx=314.141414.....3.141414..... 99x=311 x= 311 99  
From the above result, we can conclude that,
3. 14 ¯ = 311 99  .
So, 311 99   is the required fraction for 3. 14 ¯  .
Hence, the correct option is (1).
