Question

Whats 2.3

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{7}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We require 2 equations with the repeating decimal after the decimal points.

let x = 2.3333... → (1) ← multiply both sides by 10

10x = 23.333..... → (2)

Subtract (1) from (2), thus eliminating the repeating decimal

9x = 21 ( divide both sides by 9 )

x = $\frac{21}{9}$ = $\frac{7}{3}$
