<span>1/3 is equivalent to a decimal that does not terminate.
A terminating decimal is one that ends. Some decimals never end, however. If you divide 1 by 3 using the standard algorithm, you will get 0.333333... repeating forever. This is a non-terminating decimal, or repeating decimal.
In contrast, 1/4 is equal to 0.25, which is a terminal decimal.</span>
Answer:
2 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
1 3/4 is equivalent to 7/4
1 1/3 is equivalent to 4/3
7/ 4 x 4/3
reduce with greatest common factor so the two 4 are out (show a line crossing out the top and bottom 4 )
now you're left with 7 x 1/3 = 7/3
7/3 = 2 1/3
