Question

Match the correct rational number to its equivalent repeating decimal: 27.33333

Answer 1

Answer:

A. $\frac{82}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: We know .3333... is $\frac{1}{3}$, we rewrite the equation as  $\frac{1}{3}$

$27\frac{1}{3}\\ \frac{1+(27)(3)}{3}\\\frac{1+81}{3}\\\frac{82}{3}$

Therefore the answer would be A. $\frac{82}{3}$

Answer 2

Answer:

A. 82/3

Step-by-step explanation:

$3\overline{|\smallspace82}\space\space\space\space\\\mathrm{Divide}\:8\:\mathrm{by}\:3\:\mathrm{to\:get}\:2\\\begin{matrix}\space\space\space\space\emptyspace2\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\\ 3\overline{|\smallspace82}\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\end{matrix}$

$\begin{matrix}\space\space\space\space\emptyspace2\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\\ 3\overline{|\smallspace82}\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\\ \space\space\space\space\underline{\emptyspace6}\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\end{matrix}\\\mathrm{Multiply\:the\:quotient\:digit}\:\left(2\right)\:\mathrm{by\:the\:divisor}\:3$

$\mathrm{Bring\:down\:the\:next\:number\:of\:the\:dividend}$

$\begin{matrix}\space\space\space\space\emptyspace2\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\\ 3\overline{|\smallspace82}\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\\ \space\space\space\space\underline{\emptyspace6}\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\\ \space\space\space\space\emptyspace2\emptyspace2\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\end{matrix}$

Divide 22 by 3 to get 7

$\begin{matrix}\space\space\space\space\emptyspace2\emptyspace7\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\\ 3\overline{|\smallspace82}\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\\ \space\space\space\space\underline{\emptyspace6}\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\\ \space\space\space\space\emptyspace2\emptyspace2\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\end{matrix}$

Multiply  the quotient digit 7 by the divisor

and sbtract 21 from 22=1

= 27 remainder 1
