Answer: Box A, 2.777
=======================================================
Explanation:
When using a calculator or long division, you should find that
7/9 = 0.7777...
where the 7s go on forever
So we can say that 7/9 = 0.777 approximately. You could argue that the last '7' would round up to an '8' and we could say 7/9 = 0.778; however, I'll stick to the first value so that it matches with the answer.
Since 7/9 = 0.777, this means 2 & 7/9 = 2 + 7/9 = 2 + 0.777 = 2.777 which is box A.
