The fraction 1/3 cannot be expressed as a whole number because it represents a value less than 1.
- Whole numbers are non-negative integers (0, 1, 2, 3, ...).
- 1/3 ≈ 0.333..., which is a decimal between 0 and 1.
1. Approximation:
- If rounded to the nearest whole number, 1/3 ≈ 0 (since 0.333... is closer to 0 than to 1).
2. Multiplication Context:
- If you take 1/3 of a whole number (e.g., 13 × 6 = 2 ), the result can sometimes be whole.
But 1/3 itself is not a whole number.
Answer:
*"1/3 cannot be written as a whole number; it is approximately 0 when rounded."*
