Answer:

d) 2/9

Step-by-step explanation:

The fraction 2/9 converts to 0.2222 repeating. You can see if they are repeating or not by dividing the numerator by the denominator. So for this instance, you would divide 2 by 9 and that gives you the repeating decimal. But, if you divide 7/8 it would give you 0.875 which is not a repeating decimal as it has an end. You just divide each one of the answers until you get one that repeats the same number multiple times. Hope this helped
