Divide both by 22 so 44/66 = 2/3 as 44/22 = 2 and 66/22 = 3
divide both by 2 so 66/114 = 33/57 then divide both by 3 so 33/57 = 11/19
66/75 = 0.88
3X - 4 = 66 add 4 to each side 3X - 4 + 4 = 66 + 4 3X = 70 divide each sides integers by 3 (3/3)X = 70/3 X = 70/3 ------------------check in original equation 3(70/3) - 4 = 66 210/3 - 4 = 66 70 - 4 = 66 66 = 66 ---------------checks ( naturally, you could have canceled here, 3(70/3) and just got 70 )
Divide 2 by 3 then multiply by 100 to change the answer into a percent. The final answer is 66 2/3%
divide both by 3 45/66 = 15/22
Divide both by 22 so 44/66 = 2/3 as 44/22 = 2 and 66/22 = 3
sixty six divide by 3 is 22
divide both by 2 so 66/114 = 33/57 then divide both by 3 so 33/57 = 11/19
Divide it by 100: 66 and 2/3 percent = 0.666666 ....recurring 6
To calculate 2/3 of something, multiply the something by 2, then divide the result by 3. (If you'd prefer, the order doesn't matter, so you can also divide by 3 and multiply the result by 2.)

If you need to work out how many times a number (x) goes into another (y), you divide y by x. Therefore you need to divide 20 by 66. 20/66 = 0.30303030303030 (recurring) times
By factoring the numerator and denominator in a fraction, you can then divide common multiples out and reduce the fraction to the simplest terms. Perhaps an example might be of help. If we have 66/99, we can see that 66 = 2 x 3 x 11, and 99 = 3 x 3 x 11. We can divide the 3 and the 11 out of both the numerator and denominator, and have 2/3 as the answer. The 66/99 = 2/3. Factoring the numerator and denominator allow us to see what we can divide out to reduce the fraction.
