The thing to remember about a percentage is that it's just a fraction

with a denominator of 100. That's all it is.

So 22% is exactly the same as 22/100. This means that 33% is the same

as 33/100, and 33 1/3% is the same as

33 1/3

------

100

Now, this is a pretty ugly fraction. It would be nicer-looking if we

multiplied the numerator and denominator by 3, which changes the

appearance without changing the value:

33 1/3 3 100

------ * - = ---

100 3 300

And this can be simplified to 1/3.
