    16 2/3 %

    0.16666 (6 repeating forever) type it as a decimal

    (also, from now on, just know that the 6 is repeating forever)

    x =.1666 then you set that to equal x

    10x = 1.666, 100x=16.66 and multiply by 10 and 100

    100x-10x = 90x then subtract

    16.66 - 1.66 = 15 do it again, but with the numbers

    90x=15 now you set them to each other

    x = 15/90 divide

    x = 1/6 simplify

    your answer is 1/6
