Ok, so the first thing you want to do is to eliminate the ones that are definitely not the answer. Which ones are definitely not the answer?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i want 100% on this so i need a good answer

Try writing out what the answers would look like. I think you'll find your answer that way.

-7:1/3 is this what you mean?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (camerondoherty):

it is d the bar symbolizes that it goes on forever so it would be like this 7.333333333333333333.... and so on and so on

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hmm.. all of them could be correct. Let's understand what equivalent means. It means that it's equal, same. If we understand it correctly and wrote it, it would be like this; -7, 1/3 But we're looking for which is the same. So, it would be this: -7.333 (repeating)

OpenStudy (camerondoherty):

the first one is 7.13 tht isn't correct the next one is 7.1333333333333 tht isn't correct either and the 3rd one is 7.3 and the last one is the one were looking for 7.3333333333333333333333333
