Question

Can anyone help me? And I'd be greatful if you could show me the steps of how you got the answer too... :)

Find 33 1/3% of 420.
(thirty-three and one-thirds percent of 420)

Answer 1

140. 33 1/3 is the same thing as saying a third of the whole thing. 420 divided by 3 is 140.

Answer 2

33 1/3% = 1/3

1/3 of 420 = 1/3 x 420 = 420 / 3 = 140

Answer 3

The easy way to do one like this is change 33 1/3 % to 1/3.
1/3 of 420/1=1/3x420/1=420/3=140.

Answer 4

33 1/3 % is just the same as 1/3, so divide 420 by 3.

Getting 140.

Answer 5

140

33 and 1/3% = 1/3

1/3 x 420 = 140

Answer 6

33 and 1/3 per cent equals 1/3

1/3 of 420 = 420/3 = 140

per cents are parts of a hundred, i.e 33 and 1/3 % = 33.33333/100; 66.7% = 66.7/100; 25% = 25/100 = 1/4 and so on

Answer 7

Okay.
33 and one third...

so first you take a calcluator (graphing calc.)
And type in .33(1/3)

with parenthesis around the third. The period goes before the 33 because when you multiply percents you must take away the percent sign by putting the dot there.

Then multiply that number by 420.

Or for a rounded answer do .33 times 420. :] Goodluck.

Answer 8

Simply DIVIDE 420 by 33.333
This should give you an absolute figure.

Answer 9

33.3 divided by 100

= .333

.333 multiplied by 420

= 139.86

Answer 10

=140 you can take 33 1/3 and multiply it by 4.20 and you get 140 or you can multiply 33.33333333 by 4.20 and get the same thing. they are the same thing i just changed the fraction to a decimal.
