Answer:

.333333... can be expressed as 1/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

A rational number is defined as:

<em>any number that can be expressed as the quotient or fraction p/q of two integers, a numerator p and a non-zero denominator q. </em>

aka, any number that you can express as a fraction.

Any person who has spent enough time in math should be familiar with the fact that the thirds (aka 1/3, 2/3) are repeating decimals, but are rational numbers as they can be written as whole number fractions.

If you didn't know this, don't worry. You'll get it soon enough.

Hope this helped!
