Answer:

0.33

Explanation:

To convert a percentage to decimal, we need to divide the percentage by 100%

First, we write it as an improper fraction. So we get ....

33 1/3 % = 100/3 %

Then to get rid of the percentage sign, we need to divide the number by 100% ...

100/3 ÷ 100 = 100/3 x 1/100 = 1/3

Now that we have gotten rid of the percentage sign, we have the answer in fraction ... we will now convert the fraction to decimal.

1/3 = 0.33 (nearest hundredth)
