Part A
Choose The Number That Shows The Decimal As A Fraction

A. 2/10

B. 22/100

C. 2/9

D. 2/8

Answer 1

Answer: 2/9

Explanation:

2/9 = .222

4/18 = .222

4 players prefer using wood bats

14 players prefer using aluminum bats

18 is the total number surveyed because the results above show 14 aluminum and 4 wood bats, which could make the fraction and decimal 4/18 and .222 of players surveyed.

Answer 2

the answer is 2/9. the other three are terminating decimals. just use a calculator to divide 2 by 10. and 22 by 100 and so on. you’ll see that 2 divided by 9 is .2222222
