Answer:

I do not agree because Mario's claim is not general.

Step-by-step explanation:

Prime numbers: These are a set of numbers that are divisible by 1 and itself only. Examples are: 2, 3, 5, 7. 11 etc.

And a  denominator is the divisor in a given fraction.

Considering the following fractions whose denominators are prime numbers:

[tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] = 0.66666666...

[tex]\frac{1}{7}[/tex] = 0.142857142

[tex]\frac{5}{11}[/tex] = 0.45454545...

[tex]\frac{3}{13}[/tex] = 0.23076923

[tex]\frac{1}{7}[/tex] = 0.142857142

It could be observed that Mario's claim is not a general principle which is applicable to all fractions with a prime denominator. Thus, I do not agree with his claim.
