It depends on how you write it.
- 130 8/9 -- one 8
- 130.88888888888... -- an infinite number of 8s
Step-by-step explanation:
The quotient 5890/45 has a value of 130 8/9. The fraction 8/9 is the repeating decimal 0.888888..., which has as many 8s as you want to write. It can be abbreviated to have just one 8 when written like this:
