In order to find 5 1/3% as a fraction, first convert to an improper fraction...

5 1/3% = 16/3%

To convert % to a fraction we divide by 100...

16/3% = 16/3 ÷ 100

To divide fractions we multiply the reciprocal of the divisor...

16/3 ÷ 100 =
16/3 × 1/100 =

Now multiply

16/3 × 1/100 = 16/300

Now reduce

16/300 = 8/150 = 4/75

5 1/3% = 4/75
