Answer:
The fraction 1/3 is not equivalent to a a terminating decimal, the fraction is equivalent a number that does not terminate (repeating decimal)
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
A <u>terminating decimal</u> it's a decimal with a finite number of digits.
A <u>repeating decimal </u>is a decimal that has a digit, or a block of digits, that repeat over and over and over again without ever ending
In this problem we have
1/3=0.33333333...
The digit 3 repeat over and over and over again without ever ending
therefore
The fraction 1/3 is not equivalent to a a terminating decimal, the fraction is equivalent a number that does not terminate (repeating decimal)
