Solution:

Convert all the numbers to decimal form;

1/3 = 0.3 (where 3 is recurring)

33/100 = 0.33

5/6 = 0.83 (where 3 is recurring)

2/3 = 0.6 (where 6 is recurring)

The correct choice is 1/3 since its the only choice that don't give a limitation on rounding up the decimal value to 1 decimal place.

None of them are equivalent to 0.3, unless it's 0.3 with a bar over the 3, in which case the answer is 1/3.
