What is 2 4/3 as a decimal?

Answer

Fraction 2 4/3 as a decimal is

3.3

≈ 3.33 to hundredths

Repeating decimal: denominator 3 has the factor 3, not 2 or 5 · the bar marks the period 3 — it repeats forever

2 4/3: whole part, then 4 ÷ 3

4 = 1 × 3 + 1: whole part 2 + 1 = 3, then divide the remainder 1

remainder	×10	= digit × 3 + new remainder	digit
1	10	3 × 3 + 1	3

Remainder 1 is back after the 1st division → the digit 3 repeats forever: 0.3.

3 + 0.3 = 3.3
