Answer:

Part A:

0.1111111111111 = 1/9

Part B:

3

Explanation:

Part A:

When I put 0.111111111 into my calculator I get a conversion of 1/9.

Part B:

The fraction 1/9 means that for every 9 kids he surveyed, 1 of them replied "yes."

So covert 1/9 into x/27

27/9 = 3 which means 9 goes into 27, 3 times.

Multiply 1 by 3.

1 x 3 = 3

Put into fraction form

3/27

This means 3 students out of 27 answered "yes."
