Okay, I just took a math test. And I think I got 1 2/3 into a percentage wrong. I put 134%. I actually know that is wrong because I had no idea how to do that. So what would be the correct answer?

1 = 100%
2/3 = 0.6666666... = 66.6666.. %
so,
1-2/3 = 166.66666...%
Hope this helps!

How much is 1/3 of 1 equal to? It's equal to 1/3, 0.333..., and 33%, because if you multiply any of those by 3, the answer will be approximately 1. So if you multiply 33% by 2, you get 66%. Add this to 100% (the "1" part of 1 2/3) and you get 166%!

1 2/3 = 5/3
Multiply numerator and denominator by 100
500/300
Now divide both by 3
(500/3)/100
1 2/3 = 500/3%
= 166.666666..%
= 166.67% (Approx)

every 1/3 is 33.3%

no one rounded up?
167%
166.6666666666667 %
percent means multiply by 100.
"per" = for
"cent" = 100
70% = .7
10% = .1
.1 =10%
