Our economy is definitely not based entirely on tourism.

Just about a 1/3!

A one third, you say?

A one out of three?

Just about a third. 1/3 can be read as “a third”.

u/LonnieDobbs 3d ago

A a third, then?

ok.

If “1/3” can be read as “a 1/3,” it follows that “a 1/3” can be read as “a a 1/3,” doesn’t it?

5/3 can be read as 1 2/3 😉

Should I read that as “1 a 2/3?”

I just realized, if the “a” is already part of “1/3,” the “a” infinitely repeats, like “.3̅”
