.33 x 27 = 8.91

Answer 4

sorry about that

Answer 5

ok so what happens to the 1/3 on the problem??

Answer 6

1/3 = .33 so it becomes part of the repeating decimal to convert from percent to decimal move decimal two places to the left

Answer 7

Its like this:
0.33 percent is .33.
1/3 percent is 0.0033333...
So when you add them you get 0.333333....
We know that this is the same as 1/3
So 33 1/3% of 27 is the same thing as 1/3 of 27

Answer 8
