Italian term

2 u 7

Italian to English Science Mathematics & Statistics
From a maths exam paper. The question is on fractions so does this simply mean "2 over 7"?

Thanks in advance for any help :-)

It's not necessarily a typo - could be 'unità'?
Judith McLean Aug 16, 2012:
I'm presuming it's relating to unit fractions, but do you have more context? The full question in the paper would be helpful
Alessandra Renna Aug 16, 2012:
right it's a typo for 2 su 7 (2/7)
