<p>This is a straightforward question about converting a mixed number into a decimal. First, we need to understand mixed numbers and decimals. A mixed number includes a whole number and a fraction. In this case, '3' is the whole number, and '1/3' is the fractional part. A decimal represents a non-whole number using a decimal point (.) to separate the whole number part from the fractional part. The numbers to the left of the decimal point represent the whole number, and those to the right represent the fractional part.</p>
