Liberty does not describe a dime. However, when most people refer to "liberty dimes" they are talking about dimes made before the 1940s. The best way to know how much silver is in your dime is to check the date. All dimes made before 1965 contain 90% silver. All dimes dated 1965 or later contain 0% silver.
33 percent is precisely 33/100, but for most practical purposes it's about, but not exactly, 1/3rd.
On most scales, that would be a B-.
60/100 is the most direct representation. Simplifying down to 6/10 or 3/5. Percent means "per 100". So a percent is always that number divided by 100.
730 found etched on any jewelry means that the piece is 73 percent silver. The other percent is most likely copper.
