There were 6 girls and 18 boys in Mrs. Johnson’s math

class. Write a ratio of the # of girls to the # of boys in

fraction form. Then write the fraction as a repeating

decimal.

Verified Answer :

6 to 18 would be 6/18 in fraction form (the 6 over the 18) and to find the fraction as a repeating decimal you would divide 6÷18 which would be 0.3333333333

Answer:

0.3333

Step-by-step explanation:

There were 6 girls and 18 boys in Mrs. Johnson’s math  class.

Number of girls = 6

number of boys = 18

To write the ratio of number of girls to the number of boys we make a fraction

\(\frac{girls}{boys}\)

Replace the number in the fraction and simplify

\(\frac{6}{18}\)

Divide both top and bottom of the fraction by 6

\(\frac{1}{3}\)

Repeating decimal of \(\frac{1}{3}\) is 0.3333
