Answer:
16 2/3 = 50/3.
Step-by-step explanation:
My original wording on this problem was to turn 16 2/3 % into a fraction.
16 2/3 = 16.6666666…
Change the percent to a decimal number by moving the decimal two places to the left.
Call this x = 0.16666666…
Now 10x = 1.66666666…
And 100x 16.66666666…
Subtract 100x - 10x = 15
90x = 15
x = 15/90 = 1/6
So 16 2/3 % = 1/6
