In part a and b, use each of the digits 2, 3, & 4 exactly once.

a. Write a mixed number that has a terminating decimal, and write the decimal.


b. Write a mixed number that has a repeating decimal, and write the decimal.

Respuesta :

The answer for a is 2 3/4 which will give you 1.5 .
The answer for b is 4 2/3 which will give you a repeating decimal of 2.666666667. Hope this helps.

Answer:

a) [tex]2\frac{3}{4}[/tex] = 2.75

b) [tex]4\frac{2}{3} [/tex]= 4.6666...

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given 3 digits: 2,3,4

A terminating decimal is a decimal which stops after some decimal or ends.

a) Mixed fraction = [tex]2\frac{3}{4} = \frac{11}{4}[/tex]

decimal expansion = 2.75

It can be clearly seen that the decimal expansion stopped after two decimal places.

b) Mixed fraction =  Mixed fraction = [tex]4\frac{2}{3} = \frac{14}{3}[/tex]

Decimal expansion = 4.666666...

It can be clearly seen that the decimal expansion is non terminating and does not stop.
