Step-by-step explanation:
0.333....
Let x be 0.333.....
and Let 10x be 10 X 0.333...... = 3.33
10 x - x = 3.33 - 0.33
=3
9x = 3
x = 3/9 =1/3!
1/3 is a rational number which is in p/q form where p and q are integers(co primes) and q is not equal to 0.so it can be the answer.

Answer:
a = 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: 0.3 bar.
So, let us assume variable (a) as 0.3 bar.
⇢a = 0.3333...
⇢10a = 10 × (0.333...) = 3.333...
⇢3.333... = 3 + a
⇢a = 0.333...
⇢10a = 3 + a
⇢9a = 3
⇢a = 1/3
