If the decimal form for a unit fraction is a repeating decimal, is it possible for a multiple of that fraction to have a decimal form that is not a repeating decimal. Use examples to explain your reasoning.

Respuesta :

Yes, it is possible. My example would be the fraction 1/3. Its decimal form is 0.3333333~. But when you multiple this with 9, it will become 9/3 = 3. In fact, the answer is a whole number. So, technically, it is a decimal form that is not repeating when you report it as 3.00.
