Beth said that the ratio of number of players in any sport to the number of players on a lacrosse team must always be a terminating decimal. Do you agree or disagree? Why?

Disagree. This is because if there were 9 players on a lacrosse team, and 3 players on another sports team then the ratio would be 3:9, which equals 0.3 repeating, which is not a terminating decimal.
