Convert the fraction to a decimal, then multiply by

100.

Convert to decimal

1/3=0.3 ( put the little line on top of 3 to show continues all 3)

Multiply decimal by 100

0.3 ×100( put the little line on top of 3 of the 0.3 to show continues all 3)


Then simplify

33.3%( put the little line on top of the last 3 to show continues all 3)

you would do this

1÷3=0.3333333333

then

0.3333333333 × 100= 33.33333333

and the answer is
33.33333333%
