Which rational number represents the point corresponding to \(0.333\ldots\) on the number line?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: \(\frac{1}{3}\)

Let \(x=0.333\ldots\). Then \(10x=3.333\ldots\). Subtracting the first equation from the second gives \(9x=3\), so \(x=\frac{1}{3}\). Options B, C and D represent the terminating decimals \(0.3\), \(0.33\) and \(0.333\), respectively, not the infinitely repeating decimal. Exam tip: To convert a repeating decimal into a fraction, assign it to \(x\), multiply by the appropriate power of \(10\), and subtract.
