5 + 0.33333... 

<span>If you don't immediately recognize 0.33333.... as 1/3 (a very common fraction you should memorize), you can do the following. </span>

<span>x = 0.33333... </span>

<span>Multiply that by 10 to shift everything 1 place to the left: </span>
<span>10x = 3.33333... </span>

<span>Now subtract: </span>
<span>10x - x = 3.33333... - 0.33333... </span>
<span>9x = 3 </span>
<span>x = 3/9 </span>
<span>x = 1/3 </span>

<span>Answer: </span>
<span>5 1/3 </span>

<span>P.S. Here's a shortcut way to turn a repeating decimal into a fraction. </span>

<span>1) Take the repeated part and put it over an equivalent number of nines. </span>

<span>Example: </span>
<span>0.57575757... = 57/99 </span>

<span>At that point, see if you can reduce the fraction: </span>
<span>= 19/33 </span>

<span>Another example: </span>
<span>0.123123123... = 123/999 </span>
<span>= 41/333 </span>

<span>So in your example: </span>
<span>5.33333... = 5 + 0.33333... </span>
<span>= 5 + 3/9 </span>
<span>= 5 1/3</span>

Marcus drew a quadrilateral with only 1 pair of parallel sides. Which quadrilateral did Marcus draw? parallelogram rhombus trape
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

Trapezoid

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Marcus drew a quadrilateral with only 1 pair of parallel sides. We are asked to determine the quadrilateral that Marcus drew.

We know that a parallelogram has two pair of parallel sides.

We also know that rhombus is a parallelogram whose 4 sides are equal is measure and rectangle is a parallelogram with opposite sides equal.

Since parallelogram, rhombus and rectangle has two pair of parallel sides, therefore, Marcus didn't draw any of these.

We know that trapezoid has only one pair of parallel sides, therefore, Marcus drew a trapezoid.
