28 - 100%
x - 46
(2)/(3)

28 : 100 = х : 46
(2)/(3)
х = 46
(2)/(3) * 28 : 100
x = 13
(1)/(5) - the answer.

Step 1

convert mixed number to an improper fraction


46(2)/(3)\%= (46*3+2)/(3)= (140)/(3)\%

Step 2

we know that


28 represent the
100\%

so

by proportion find the
(140)/(3)\%


(28)/(100)= (x)/((140/3)) \\\\100*x=28*(140/3) \\ \\x=(28)/(100) (140)/(3) \\ \\x=13.0666

Convert to a mixed number


13.0666..=13+0.066..=13+(2)/(30)=13(2)/(30)=13(1)/(15)

therefore

the answer is


13(1)/(15)
