2/3
= 0.66666....
Rounded to 0.667
= 100*0.667 %
= 66.7%
So 70% is greater.
2/3 is the same as 2 ÷ 3. If you perform this function then 2/3=0.6666666666666 (or 0.667 for short).
a percentage can also be shown as a decimal equivalent. Just move the decimal point 2 spaces to the left. So 70% = 0.70.
And the final answer is 70% (0.70) is greater than 2/3 (0.667).
I hope this helps. Good luck.
One is a fraction and the other is a percentage Let us convert both to the same expressions. Either both fractions or both percentage.
2/3 can be converted to percentage just by multiplying by 100.
(2/3)100=200/3 %=66⅔%
Hence 70% is greater.
Now ,let us convert both into decimal fractions,
2/3 = 0.6666666666
70%= 70/100= .7, Here .7 is greater. Hence 70%
2 over 3 is the same as .66 repeating [that's 2 divided by 3]
70% is the same as .70
so 70% > 2/3
2 over 3 means 2 divided by 3. 2/3 is 66.666% therefore 70% is greater.
